A natureza e especificidade do espaço mental através do Rorschach. Um espaço potencial? – Análise de um protocolo de uma paciente limite

Abstract

INTRODUÇÃOPropomo-nos estudar um conceito não explorado no plano da técnica Rorschach -o espaço mental/potencial -, através de um conjunto de procedimentos, por nós criados, que permitem dotar o instrumento Rorschach de capacidades para aceder a este conceito.

Assessment of the Therapeutic Evolution of Psychiatric Patients through Rorschach Psychodiagnosis

“…Initially, it was found that patients made the apprehension of percepts predominantly in detail, in spite of the D% being below the reference values, indicating lack of interest for the concrete and the real. On the other hand, the mean number of global answers was slightly high, which may reflect a defensive behaviour using a global and adaptive reality against the emergence of representations and/or affections (Chabert, 1998;Oneto et al, 2009). In the second moment of assessment, we noticed a decrease in defensive conduct, with a slight increase in projective capacity, which may be explained by the familiarisation with the testing situation, on the one hand, and, alternatively, by the decrease in the use of defensive mechanisms (normal G% and D%).…”

“…In turn, psychoanalytical models offer clinical psychology a specificity in looking and listening to the dimensions of the subject that it seeks to capture, the latter becoming "captureable" through language (narrativity), the relationship and intersubjectivity (Oneto et al, 2009;Teixeira & Marques, 2009). The psychodiagnosis is the first step to be taken and the therapeutic attitudes to be followed depend on it (Souza & Resende, 2012).…”
