This scientific-disciplinary field develops interpretive models, assessment measures, and intervention methods—along with associated approaches to teaching, training, and scientific dissemination—concerning various levels of psychic functioning (individuals, families, groups, etc.), whether adaptive or maladaptive. These approaches are characterized by a focus on: a) the subjective significance of experience; b) unconscious dimensions of the mind and their connections to implicit and conscious processes; c) the dynamic nature of the mind (including phantasmatic, motivational, and intentional components); d) the role of primary interactions, the environment, and relational experiences in the development of psychic functioning; e) the centrality of affects and intersubjective dynamics in the formation and development of personality (encompassing attachment, psychological health/distress, and psychopathology); and f) the construction of gender identities
