O conceito psicanalítico de “transferência” como fator indispensável nas interações entre professor e aluno

Abstract

This work tries to put some light on the interaction process between teacher and student and, therefore, uses of psychoanalytic theory as a theoretical basis using mainly the concepts of transference, countertransference and transitional objects. It aims to show that the difficulties many students face in their educational evolution should not be assessed only from the perspective of cognitive obstacles or teaching methods, but under the aspect of his old unresolved conflicts that update in the form of that psychoanalysis calls the transference. It also emphasizes the countertransference of a teacher to interact with their students, and the need that a teacher should reassess and readjust their positions in order to help some students pass through the stages of early psychic development, as a condition for the acquisition of attitudes more autonomous in its relationship with knowledge. The intention of the work is reinforced by interviews with six college students who reported their relational experiences with teachers who considered the most striking in their school. In the analysis of interviews it tried to identify different attitudes of teachers and compare them with the duties of a teacher derived from theoretical developments based on psychoanalytic concepts exposed in the course of the dissertation.
