- Abstract:
- Wilfred Bion was one of the most influential thinkers and practitioners of the object relations theoryin the late 20th century and the primary representative personage in post-Klein school of thought. Inheriting theidea of projective identification from Klein,he substantially extended and deepened Klein’s theory,developingit into his own characteristic interpersonal containment theory. According to Bion,containment is not onlythe earliest way of communication between mother and infant but should be the mode of interaction betweenpatient and psychoanalyst as well. The psychoanalyst plays a maternal role and functions as the containment,which transfers the projective β factor from the infan(t client) into the α factor.
