Psychoanalytic psychotherapy has as its main objective to bring research and evaluation closer to the clinical practice of psychotherapy, establishing a bridge between the results of empirical studies and the artisanal work of psychotherapy, reviewing research in psychoanalytic psychotherapy developed in recent decades.

This volume addresses different forms of psychotherapy (individual, couple, family, group), performed with children, adolescents or adults. In addition, the methodological and statistical procedures necessary both to understand the published research and to carry them out are presented in a didactic manner.

It is therefore an essential book for all those psychoanalytic orientation therapists who consider integrating their clinical experience with research and for researchers who want to know what and how to research psychoanalytic psychotherapy. It is also of interest to undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students, who will find in this text the tools necessary to design a qualitative or quantitative study, as well as the statistical procedures with which to analyze the results.
