ABSTRACT
Proof and refutation of psychoanalytic research is best expressed by Sigmund Freud’s observation about free associations. If the analyst utters something that propitiates an insight, the patient must react to it by uttering a free association. The medium of communication in psychoanalysis comprises semantic and non-semantic realms of talking. In psychoanalysis, both material and methods are one and the same: mind itself. This could not leave the analyst hapless, because other nonpositivist sciences, like modern physics share the same feature. Psychoanalytic research is based on intuition, in the same vein as any research around the world in all scientific disciplines known to humanity since the inception of science. Lack of a good enough, real hypothesis leaves some researchers free to imagine. In this case, one should ask how an a-element could be used to form memories, dreams and thoughts before birth.
