title: Countertransference and the theory of technique: discussion.
abstract: Historical, clinical, and conceptual remarks are presented regarding countertransference and the theory of psychoanalytic technique, preliminary to and in the context of discussing the contributions to the panel, "Countertransference in Theory and Practice" (Tyson, 1984; Loewald, 1984; Jacobs, 1984; Dewald, unpublished). In addition, special emphasis is given to problems of countertransference in training and supervision which may be prototypes for later difficulties in analytic work.
