A Note on the Protomental System and "Groupishness": Bion's Basic Assumptions Revisited
重新审视比昂关于群体无意识基本假设的理论,提出其行为可能源于生物遗传而非后天防御,有助于理解群体和组织过程,对群体管理有启示。
In identifying the unconscious "basic assumption" behavior of groups, Bion made a significant discovery. Although he toyed with explaining this behavior as instinctive, he ultimately postulated that it was a postnatal defense. However, there is a strong case for the biogenetic explanation. This sharpens our understanding of some group and organizational processes that have been hitherto described in terms of psychoanalytic concepts. It may also have implications for management of, and interventions in, groups and larger systems.
