The schizophrenic is capable of forming a transference relationship but it is of a 'mysterious nature', perhaps resembling that described by Melanie Klein in the newborn. When the schizophrenic approaches any object in love or hate he becomes confused with that object. Rosenfeld bases his technique on classical interpretation of transference phenomena. Others also employ this but utilize, in addition, reassurance and educative measures.
