In this episode, Dr Carveth discusses splitting.  Don goes on to discuss a problem in Kleinian theory of development, and how Klein attributes the capacity to split of infants under six months of age. That said, splitting is a complex cognitive capacity to abstract and generalize that can only arise with symbolization, sometime in the second year of life. This is not a problem for the Kleinian theory of the mind of older children, adolescents and adults, but only for its theory of infant development. Dr Carveth works with Aodhán Moran to produce this podcast.
