Abstract
The »inner world« of the mind was, in the past, the traditional preserve of psychoanalysis and related disciplines,
and it was therefore placed at the margins of neural science. During 1990-ies numerous investigations in the field of neuroscience
have led to significant findings, which explain biological correlates of psychological functions. There are much
scientific evidence that support association between psychoanalysis and neuroscience. Psychoanalysis offers a unique
in-depth perspective on the psychology of human motivation, and furthermore has contributions both to make and to receive
in the gathering scientific integration.
