The third individuation. The effect of biological parenthood on separation-individuation processes in adulthood.

The subject of this paper is the Third Individuation, the continuous process of elaboration of the self and differentiation from objects which occurs in the developmental phases of early (20 to 40) and middle (40 to 60) adulthood. Although it is influenced by all important adult object ties, at its core are involvements with children, spouse, and parents, i.e., the family, the same psychological constellation that shaped the first (Mahler) and second (Blos) individuations.

Adventure in the outdoors. Its importance in the development of an adolescent boy.

This exploration of how the analyst works uses a 15-year-old boy's description of an adventure in the outdoors as the starting point for a sequence of associations which led first to a passage from a Wordsworth poem and then to memories from the analyst's own childhood. The related themes of rite of passage and adolescent mourning are elaborated.

[Migraine reflected in contributions to psychodynamic research. A review of the literature].

Psychosomatic contributions of the migraine are presented to overcome a static--caracterological approach pointing out the suitableness of the psychoanalytical method and mode of thinking. Migraine can be more extensively understood as a psychodynamic process. In consideration of the psychodynamics of migraine patients a shift from the structural model of conflict to the object-relation-theory became apparent. Narcissistic aspects are emphasized.

Male homosexuality reconsidered.

Prevailing psychoanalytic attitudes toward male homosexuality are predisposed to the treatment of it as a psychopathological disorder. This study proposes that the appearance of disorder follows from the distortions imposed on the personality during development. Superego conflicts ensue that are relieved rather than resolved in the analysis, if the analyst shares the patient's conviction that it is sexuality that is disordered. The study's second point is the suggestion that the unifying characteristic of male homosexuals is to be found in the particular form of body narcissism that leads to same-sex choice. Third, it is proposed that analysts reconsider the likelihood that biogenetic elements enter into the homosexual outcome.
