ABSTRACT

Any student who is in a state of intense emotional need should be free to express his or her personal self-indicator. In principle, the unconscious basis of a self-indicator should be clarified by the communicative insights gained through the linking process. The ground rules and frame of the self-processing class, and the behaviours of both the students and their teacher, are, as noted, the most cogent organizers of their material and their encoded communications and emotional states. It is important to convey the sense that self-indicators are related to triggers – i.e., that the students’ dysfunctions, improvements, and frame-related behaviours are connected to and are a factor of the interventions of the instructor. A self-processing class is a fair, bipersonal domain in the sense that everything experienced by a student or teacher is understood as an interactional event with strong inputs from both sides.
