BRIEF COMMUNICATION:
EVENLY HOVERING ATTENTION

The reader will note the last sentence. Here Freud implied that
by 1923, his technique had evolved somewhat, though the precise
meaning of the sentence is far from clear. If, however, we turn to a
later article, we find a much clearer statement of Freud’s view of the
ways in which psychoanalytic technique in the early twenties differed
from that of ten years earlier.
