An Evidence-based Critique Of Contemporary Psychoanalysisassesses The State Of Psychoanalysis In The 21stcentury. Joel Paris Examines Areas Where Analysis Needs To Develop A Stronger Scientific And Clinical Base, And To Integrate Its Ideas With Modern Clinical Psychology And Psychiatry. While Psychoanalysis Has Declined As An Independent Discipline, It Continues To Play A Major Role In Clinical Thought. Paris Explores The Extent To Which Analysis Has Gained Support From Recent Empirical Research. He Argues That It Could Revive Its Influence By Establishing A Stronger Relationship To Science, Whilst Looking At The State Of Current Research. For Clinical Applications, He Suggests While Convincing Evidence Is Lacking To Support Long-term Treatment, Brief Psychoanalytic Therapy, Lasting For A Few Months, Has Been Shown To Be Relatively Effective For Common Mental Disorders. For Theory, Paris Reviews Changes In The Psychoanalytic Paradigm, Most Particularly The Shift From A Theory Based Largely On Intrapsychic Mechanisms To The More Interpersonal Approach Of Attachment Theory. He Also Reviews The Interfaces Between Psychoanalysis And Other Disciplines, Ranging From Neuropsychoanalysis To The Incorporation Of Analytic Theory Into Post-modern Models Popular In The Humanities. An Evidence-based Critique Of Contemporary Psychoanalysisconcludes By Examining The Legacy Of Psychoanalysis And Making Recommendations For Integration Into Broader Psychological Theory And Psychotherapy. It Will Be Of Great Interest To Psychoanalysts, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists And Scholars And Practitioners Across The Mental Health Professions Interested In The Future And Influence Of The Field.
