FRANCO FILHO, Odilon de Mello. Manifestations in psychoanalytical group therapy as archeological registers of proto-mental configurations on their way to psychic inscription. []. , 5, 1, pp.16-25. ISSN 1806-2490.

The author suggests that certain manifestations in Group Psychoanalytical Therapy that, assume a repetitive and blocking characteristic in the evolution of the work, are vestiges of proto- mental traumatic situations lived by the group. One cannot say that these situations are unconscious because they were never constituted as such. They were not available for representation. The same way as the Beta Elements (Bion), they integrate the group space, manifesting themselves through actings. When they integrate the transfer level, they can be detected and transformed into psychic elements through interpretation. The psychic inscription will allow the passage of the Basic Assumption Group to the Work Group. Some clinical illustrations of this process will be presented.
