Considerazioni sul timing. L’approfondimento di un concetto effettuato su materiale clinico con l’uso della"griglia di riferimento"

Some notes on timing. Deep investigation of a concept on the basis of some clinical material with the use of the "reference grid" - The authors aim to deepen the concept of timing. They focus on the internal and external facts used by the analysts in the choice of when to interpret. Following an accurate historical examination of the concept of timing, some detailed clinical material is presented. A specific greed is articulated as an instrument used to deepen those aspects that have an influence on the analyst’s choice of the timing of interpretation. Evidence shows that countertransference factors are determinant in the choice of the timing thus giving shape to unconscious resistances that delay interpreting. The Authors show how the capacity to work through and self analysis allow instead to maintain the awareness of the ongoing psychoanalytic process
