To psychoanalysts as well as neuroscientists the neurological base of psychic functioning, particularly concerning the topic of trauma and dreaming is of special interest. In the first part of this paper neurobiological changes occurring in the course of two years of psychoanalytic psychotherapy of a severely traumatized, chronic depressed patient are traced by a recognition experiment of memories of dreams related to an underlying conflict and depicted in fMRI. In the second part a dream series of the same patient elicited partially in psychoanalytic treatment and partially in a sleep laboratory are traced for changes in a clinical and experimental psychoanalytic manner. The results of both fields of research are discussed. | | MP3 | | $15.00 | | $15.00 | |
