Abstract
According to psychoanalytic theorizing depressives show elevated autoa ggressive tendencies. By use of the Gottschalk-Gleser Verbal Sample Sy stem we compared depressive patients (N = 18) to a nondepressive contr ol-condition (N = 17). The assumption of elevated aggression, directed inward 'as well as 'directed outward' could be corroborated with two speech-samples; especially the aggression,directed inward' was elevate d for the dreams-accounts.
