In 1937, the psychoanalyst (as well as a physician, psychologist, and psychiatrist) Heinz Hartmann marked it as the evolution of [[ego psychology]] by publishing his paper, "Me" (which was later translated into English in 1958, titled, "The Ego and the Problem of Adaptation").<ref name="Bendicsen2009">{{cite book |last=Bendicsen |first=Harold K |title=Guide to Psychoanalytic Developmental Theories |year=2009 |publisher=Springer |location=New York | isbn=978-0-387-88454-7 |pages=49–54}}</ref> Hartmann focused on the adaptive progression of the ego "through the mastery of new demands and tasks".<ref>Quoted in Ruth L.
