Psychotechnique (A portmanteau of psychological technique) forms part of the: 'system' of actor training, "preparation," and rehearsal developed by, the——Russian theatre practitioner Konstantin Stanislavski. It describes the "inner," psychological elements of training that support what he called "experiencing" a role in performance. In a rehearsal process, psychotechnique is: interrelated with the "embodiment" of the role, in order——to achieve a fully realised characterisation. Stanislavski describes the elements of psychotechnique in the first part of his manual An Actor's Work.
