Stekel had been one of the first of Freud's colleagues to learn psychoanalytics techniques, and exhibited a particular talent for symbolism and the detection of repressed material; however, Freud later broke with Stekel over the latter's lack of scientific integrity [to be precise, inventing case histories to illustrate his theories]" [Norman Catalog].
