#redirect =Freudian Dictionary= <blockquote>The secondary elaboration of the product of the [[structuredream]]-[[work]] is an excellent example of the [[nature]] and the pretensions of a system. An [[intellectual]] function in us [[demands]] the unification, [[coherence]] and comprehensibility of everything perceived and [[thought]] of, and does not hesitate to [[construct]] a [[false]] connection if, as a result of special circumstances, it cannot grasp the [[right]] one. We [[know]] such system [[formation]] not only from the dream, but also from phobias, from compulsive [[thinking]] and from the types of [[delusions]]. The system formation is most ingenious in delusional states ([[paranoia]]) and dominates the [[clinical]] picture, but it also must not be overlooked in [[other]] forms of neuropsychoses. In every [[case]] we can show that a rearrangement of the [[psychic]] [[material]] takes [[place]], which may often be quite violent, provided it seems comprehensible from the point of view of the system. The best indication that a system has been formed then lies in the fact that each result of it can be shown to have at least two motivations, one of which springs from the assumptions of the system and is therefore eventually delusional-and a hidden one which, however, we must recognize as the [[real]] and effective motivation.<ref>{{T&T}} Ch. 3</ref></blockquote> {{Freudian Dictionary}}
