Abstract
According to psychoanalytic and psychodynamic theory, insight is an important mechanism that may lead to better interpersonal functioning. In this article, we have summarized empirical studies attempting to shed some light on insight as a putative mediator of treatment effects. Two case examples illustrate how improved insight might lead to clinical change. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
