What is object-relations theory?

What will be an ideal response?

Object-relations theory reflects a newer psychodynamic perspective. Object-relations theorists focus on how an individual interacts with others (objects) and on the relationships that are experienced. Interactions with others may be both real and imagined, thus we possess internalized objects that may be contradictory and give rise to internal conflicts, as when something is both feared and desired.
