Outcome Research and the Future of Psychoanalysis explores the
connection between outcome studies and important and complex
questions of clinical practices, research methodologies,
epistemology, and sociological considerations. Presenting the ideas
and voices of leading experts in clinical and extra-clinical
research in psychoanalysis, the book provides an overview of the
state of the art of outcome research, its results and implications.
Furthermore, its contributions discuss the basic premises and ideas
of outcome research and in which way the contemporary Zeitgeist
might shape the future of psychoanalysis. Divided into three parts,
the book begins by discussing the scientific basis of
psychoanalysis and advances in psychoanalytic thinking as well as
the state of the art of psychoanalytic outcome research, critically
analyzing so-called evidence-based therapies. Part II of the book
contains exemplary research projects that are discussed from a
clinical perspective, illustrating the dialogue between researchers
and clinicians. Lastly, in Part III, several psychoanalysts review
the importance of critical thinking and research in
psychoanalytical education. Thought-provoking and expertly written
and researched, this book is a useful resource for academics,
researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of mental
health, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis.
