GRALHA, Márcia  e  CECCARELLI, Paulo Roberto. Justification Systems Theory (JUST) and some psychoanalytic assumptions: transdisciplinary reflections. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2023, n.59, pp.97-108.  Epub 14-Fev-2025. ISSN 2175-3482.  https://doi.org/10.5935/2175-3482.n59a10.

This essay establishes conceptual connections between a metatheoretical approach, namely, Justification Systems Theory (JUST; Henriques, 2022) and some psychoanalytic premises. Justification Systems Theory provides an explanatory framework aiming to clarify the uniqueness of human consciousness and communication. This approach maintains an evolutionary perspective, preserving continuity with the primate experience and framing human culture as systems of justification. The convergence with Freudian assumptions is highlighted, notably evidenced by the updated tripartite model, composed of experiential self, private self (ego), and public self (persona), paralleling the tripartite structure of id, ego, and superego in Freudian theory. Human consciousness is interpreted as an evolutionarily novel mental apparatus, serving an adaptive function by narrating justifications that legitimize and coordinate actions in the culture plane.
