摘要

• Enactment
  • What it is
    • Symbolic interactions between analyst and patients which have unconscious meaning to both
    • Result from the patient’s attempt to create an interactional representation of a wished-for object relations
    • Nonverbal communication with unconscious clues
      • only a more primitive channel, not necessarily preverbal period
    • A realization of the patient’s transference fantasies
    • A concrete shared regressive experience beyond words
    • A link between current and past experiences
  • What it means
    • Not beneficial to the patient itself
    • Yet lead to affects that can enrich the analytic process
    • With the observation, description and eventual understanding
      • transferential meaning
      • the content of the fantasy, memory, or impulse
    • The analyst as a participant
      • Not always happen 
  • Clinical situation
    • We must contain ourselves yet still experience the impulse to action
    • Sometimes enactment first, and then understanding is more useful
  • After the enactment
    • The patient
      • Reemerge later in another form
    • The analyst
      • Continue to interpret the seemingly unconscious connections
      • Share the understanding
