žetta projective identification er frekar ferskt, hugsa oft um hvernig mestar upplżsingar viršast tjįst "non verbally" sem viršist ašallega snśast um aš lesa milli lķnanna eša žannig. Louis theroux er einmitt góšur žvķ hann spyr einfaldar spurningar meš einföldum svörum sem innihalda samt hrśgur af upplżsingum ef mašur tekur allt samhengiš.

Žegar viš hlustum opiš tökum viš ósjįlfrįtt tķmabundiš į okkur hlutverkin sem viš skynjum aš sį sem er aš tjį sig ętlast af okkur til aš fį meiri innsżn ķ samhengi oršanna. Viršist vera aš mannapar reiši sig ansi mikiš į svona galdrabrögš enda engin leiš til aš lęra tungumįl ķ fyrsta skipti įn žeirra.

Though a difficult concept for the conscious mind to come to terms with,[5] since its primitive nature makes its operation or interpretation seem more like magic or art than science,[6] projective identification is nonetheless a powerful tool of interpersonal communication.

The recipient of the projection may suffer a loss of both identity and insight as they are caught up in and manipulated by the other person's fantasy.[7] One therapist, for example, describes how "I felt the progressive extrusion of his internalized mother into me, not as a theoretical construct but in actual experience. The intonation of my voice altered, became higher with the distinctly Ur-mutter quality."[8] If the projection can be accepted and understood, however, much insight into the projector will be obtained.
