title: [Speech behavior and neurotic personality structure (author's transl)].
abstract: Speech behavior of the patient and the analyst is considered with regard to the psychoanalytic situation and its regulating factors such as transference and countertransference. If the psychoanalytic situation is regarded as a means to investigate the patient and his symptoms, his verbal behavior seems to depend on the unconscious motives forming his neurotic personality structure. On the other hand, if the psychoanalytic situation is regarded as a communicative situation, the verbal behavior of the patient as well as of the analyst depends rather on their "here-and-now" transference relationship in certain phase of the psychoanalytic process.
