Dr. Menninger believes that psychoanalysis has contributed much theory to psychiatry but little that is used in the practice of psychiatry. This is due to
the resistance of psychiatrists and to the isolation of the psychoanalysts. The contributions of psychoanalysis to psychiatric theory and to psychiatric practice are listed and discussed. Special emphasis is laid upon the fact that so little use of psychoanalytic concepts has been made in psychiatric practice, particularly in psychiatric patients requiring hospitalization.
