Scope and content
Papers concerning an anonymous survey of students and psychoanalysts. A draft memorandum states that a need for statistics on psychoanalytic treatment was expressed at a meeting of the IPA's Research Group at the 18th International Psychoanalytic Congress in London in 1953.
Questionnaire No. 1 (sent medically-qualified candidates) and No. 2 (sent to lay candidates) was designed to 'obtain information regarding the relationship of psychological, psychiatric training etc to psychoanalytic training'. This survey was sent to the 100 people most recently enrolled as students at the Institute; response forms are included. Questionnaires No. 3 and Questionnaire No. 4 were sent to everyone in psychoanalytic practice in England and Scotland; Questionnaire No. 3 was designed to 'obtain information... about persons under psychoanalytic treatment and training' and Questionnaire No. 4 was designed to 'obtain information... about patients discharged from treatment for whatever cause'.
Statistics compiled from the results of each survey are included, plus a brief report compiling the statistics.
