PSYCHODYNAMICS OF CONFINEMENT OF WARTIME MILITARY OFFENDERS
JOSEPH C. SOLOMON A. U. S.
The psychodynamics of confinement of wartime military prisoners was discussed. The constructive and destructive factors affecting the men were mentioned. The abandonment of diagnostic labels has enabled the psychiatrists to look upon the military offenders from the point of view of dynamic formulations which are capable of change as the situation demands. Finally, some suggestions were offered for therapy and for preparing the prisoners for restoration to duty.
