Extract

The functions of resistance and restraint are considered in three topographically distinct psychological disorders that are characterized by excessive behaviour. Certain similarities are observed and speculations about their common role are examined. Finally attention is drawn to the implications of this type of analysis for our understanding of such disorders and for psychological treatment.
