Institute of Psycho-Analysis, London

Since the report to the Wiesbaden Congress, 1932, the energies of the British Training Committee have been directed largely to consolidating the existing organization. Apart from this, the most outstanding event has been the expansion of the section devoted to training in child-analysis. This has kept pace with the extension of the child department of the Institute and Clinic. The Institute has taken over the whole of the building at 36 Gloucester Place, and is now in a position to treat a larger number of cases without the inconvenience which is inevitable when both adults and children are treated in a limited space.

CLINICAL WORK

The total number of cases examined at the Clinic during the year was 98 (49 M., 49 F.). Of this total 86 were adults (46 M., 40 F.) and 12 were children (3 M., 9 F.).

Waiting List. The number on the waiting list at the end of this year is 166, compared with 137 in 1933, made up as follows:—

Under Treatment. At the end of the year there are 51 cases under treatment: 39 adults and 12 children.

TRAINING OF CANDIDATES

On June 30, 1933, there were 23 candidates on the ordinary training-list, as follows:

Adult Training: 15 in active training, 3 awaiting a vacancy for training analysis, and 4 whose training is suspended.

Child Training: 3 candidates, of whom 2 are also in adult training. During the year one candidate was added to the adult list and one transferred from the German Training Committee for completion of training.
