the 'discursive complex' can be extended to study behavioural or cognitive notions conveyed in language and experienced by users. In those cases, Parker suggests that we would then need to speak of 'discursive repertoires' or 'discursive templates'. His main concern, he argues, is with the role of psychoanalysis in relation to psychology, and he adopts the argument made by Erica Burman that psychoanalysis is the 'repressed other' of psychology. In this way he hopes to make psychoanalysis be of relevance to critical psychology without simply replacing psychology with psychoanalysis. References Psychoanalytic theory
