introjection

The effect of introjection on object relations is equally important.

Projection has been described as an early phase of introjection.

This was opposed to Freud's notion that only introjection takes place in early experience.

Introjection is a psychoanalytical term with a variety of meanings.

Klein's theories of projection and introjection greatly extend this model.

"Individuals with weak ego boundaries are more prone to use introjection as a defense mechanism."

Introjection is the unconscious internalization of another person's behaviors, ideas, values, or points of view.

Introjection: Identifying with some idea or object so deeply that it becomes a part of that person.

You know the drill: transference, counter-transference, resistance, insight, projection, introjection.

Introjection is to a great extent unawares."

The introjection of the good object, first of all the mother's breast, is a precondition for normal development'(Klein 1975: 9).

The introjection of the good breast provides a location where one can hide from persecution, an early step in developing a capacity to self-soothe.

In Gestalt therapy the concept of "introjection" is not identical with the psychoanalytical concept.

They set "introjection" against "assimilation".

Winnicott thought that the "False Self" developed through a process of introjection, or internalizing one's experience of others.

The standard contact boundary resistances in Gestalt theory were confluence, introjection, projection and retroflection.

Thus Perls made "assimilation", as opposed to "introjection", a focal theme in his work, and the prime means by which growth occurs in therapy.

But some develop a more intricate picture, incorporating psycho-analytic mechanisms like projection, introjection and identification, and trying to see individual socialization in a broader frame.

You roused Herb Asher from his sleep by a crude introjection; I awaken by means of beauty."

Introjection is closely related to three other neurotic forms of mental processing; namely projection, confluention and retroflection.

Identity: similarities and differences, sums of distinguishing characteristics, units of consciousness and processes of projection, introjection, and transference.

According to D. W. Winnicott "projection and introjection mechanisms... let the other person be the manager sometimes, and to hand over omnipotence."

This effect is caused by six factors: dissociative anonymity, invisibility, asynchronicity, solipsistic introjection, dissociative imagination, and minimization of authority.
