Scope and content
Main's papers relating to weekly workshops instituted and held by Michael Balint to conduct research into 'brief, or short-term, psychotherapy'. The workshops consisted of a core peer group of about eight psychoanalysts, of which Main was one, and a psychologist. Therapy sessions with selected patients were reported by workshop members and submitted for discussion by the group in order to extract principles for future psychotherapeutic sessions.
