Objectives:

1. Participants will demonstrate an increase in intellectual knowledge of the spectrum of repetition.
2. Participants will apply this knowledge to understand in greater depth the phenomenon as it presents in the clinical situation.  In particular, the knowledge that repetition is adaptive necessary, and should not be seen as necessarily pathological  or resistance-based, will facilitate more accurate empathic interventions.
