Psychodynamics of Adult Entireties

The authors undertook a study of psychodynamics and general clinical aspects of 9 cases of adult male enuretics who were admitted during the period from May 1982 to April 1983 at the Department of Neuropsychiatry, Taegu Armed Forces General Hospital. The pertinent results are as follows: 1. In most of the cases, fathers were rather strict, rigid or weak. Therefore they were not adequate objects of identification for the enuretics. 2. Primary enuretics were overprotected by their mothers and showed lacks of autonomy and independence and were childish and immature. 3 . In the secondary enuretics, mothers were more rigid or strict, so they became the objects of fear to the subjects. Some of the secondary enuretics suffered transient separation from their parents and showed highly neurotic tendencies of hostility, depression or anxiety.
