In addition to its scientific work our newly-formed Society has made a modest beginning in psycho-analytical training (as Dr. Fenichel reported at the Lucerne Congress). At present this branch of our work is mainly confined to training-analyses. Dr. Fenichel is conducting two such analyses with physicians and two with women-students, but it is not yet certain whether the latter will enter the psycho-analytical profession. Professor Schjelderup and I myself are conducting one training analysis each.
Dr. Fenichel has delivered a course of lectures on the theory of the neuroses.
In the work of the Psychological Institute at the University, under the direction of Professor Schjelderup, psycho-analysis now plays a prominent part. At the State Examination in Psychology a certain knowledge of the subject is required.
I myself, in the exercise of my jus docendi, gave a course of lectures at the University of Oslo on The Psycho-Analytical Theory of the Instincts (attendance 60). I have also given a number of addresses to teachers, and Frau Hoel has addressed several Societies, e.g. that of parents of National School children, on the subject of sexuality in children. At the University's Psychiatric Clinic Fenichel and other members of our Society have read papers. One of our training-candidates is Clinical Assistant at this Clinic.
