Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Anna Freud’s first tentative attempts at observing children in the 1920s in Vienna, became a crucial component of the ‘double approach’ which integrated direct child observation with psychoanalytic reconstruction. This 'double approach' gave rise to Anna Freud’s developmental perspective. In setting out principles for assessing childhood disturbance, she shifted the emphasis from clinical symptomatology to interference with normal development. She asserted that the psychopathology of children could only be correctly evaluated against an understanding of age-appropriate or normative development in many areas of psychological growth. She conceptualised the Developmental Lines as a set of useful markers of a child’s normative progress across the whole spectrum of development, against which, pathology could be distinguished. Although the Lines emphasise observable behaviour, they also spell out the internal psychological development required to achieve each step on the Line. Along with the Developmental Lines, she established the Provisional Diagnostic Profile as a multi-perspective framework for assessing all areas of the child’s development, normative as well as pathological functioning. Colleagues of Anna Freud’s modified and updated the Profile to include child development research, neuroscience and attachment theory.ZieleThis seminar aims to support students to gain an in depth understanding of Anna Freud’s developmental approach and the Developmental Lines. Students learn the structure of the Provisional Diagnostic Profile and Anna Freud’s categories of diagnosis. By considering clinical examples, students will learn to apply the Developmental Lines and to construct a Provisional Diagnostic Profile, showing their relevance and usefulness to contemporary clinical practiceMethode der LehrveranstaltungThe following methods will enable the students to engage with the contents of the seminar:- Introduction to the theory through presentations- Short archive video clips of Anna Freud and colleagues discussing their work as well as contemporary video clips- Time allocated for questions and discussions- Continuous feedback
