Is informed consent required as a matter of positive law? Apart from statutes and cases, what do the professional organizations say about this?\u003cbr\u003e Second, the book looks at informed consent as a theoretical matter. It addresses such questions as: What would be the elements of a robust informed consent in psychoanalysis? Is informed consent even possible here? Can patients really understand, say, transference or regression before they experience them, and is it too late once they have? Is informed consent therapeutic or countertherapeutic? Can a \"process view\" of informed consent make sense here?\u003cbr\u003e Third, the book reviews data on the topic. A lengthy questionnaire answered by sixty-two analysts reveals their practices in this regard. Do they obtain a statement of informed consent from their patients? What do they disclose? Why do they disclose it? Do they think it is possible to obtain informed consent in psychoanalysis at all? Do they think the practice is therapeutic or countertherapeutic, and in what ways? Do they think there should or should not be an informed consent requirement for psychoanalysis?\u003cbr\u003e The book should appeal above all to therapists interested in the ethical dimensions of their practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52580268704024,"sku":"9780823249763","price":57.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/informed-consent-to-psychoanalysis-the-law-the-theory-and-the-data-hardback-9780823249763","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
