Abstract

PONCIANO, Edna Lúcia Tinoco. Family psychology, self and relationship: a narrative review of the construction of a disciplinary field. Est. Inter. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.10, n.3, suppl.1, pp. 48-65. ISSN 2236-6407.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5433/2236-6407.2019v10n3suplp48.

Family Psychology emerged as a discipline in the 1980s in the USA. Influenced by Family Therapy, it adopts the Systemic Approach as a theoretical framework and articulates with the traditional frameworks of Psychology. It advocates the integration between theoretical perspectives that approach the self and the relation. A narrative review was carried out, whose objective was to analyze and discuss the national production, considering subjects and disciplinary areas. A research was conducted at SCIELO and PEPSIC, from 2010 to 2019, with the terms Psychology and Family. Subsequently, illustrative articles were brought from the Journal of Family Psychology in order to specify the articulation between self and relationship. The results indicated that national family studies are conducted in various disciplinary areas of psychology and present traditional and innovative themes that may suggest new forms of psychological intervention.

Keywords : Family Psychology; Self; Relationship.
