Abstract(s)
O presente estudo aborda o final da adolescência, de uma perspectiva psicodinâmica.
Numa sociedade em que, cada vez mais tarde se faz o adolescer, pretendemos ilustrar os
conflitos internos vividos, durante essa fase, por ser um momento desenvolvimental onde se
concentra um enorme sofrimento emocional, observado estatisticamente. Falamos, nesta
idade, da importância da consolidação da identidade, de encontrar um equilíbrio narcísico, do
reviver depressivo, da mudança objetal, questões hoje alastradas para o contexto
universitário. Quais as respostas do ensino superior em Portugal para atender a estes
adolescentes em crise? Como é que a pressão escolar dificulta o processo? Levantámos a
problemática que visa questionar a mais valia de um serviço de psicodinâmica em contexto
universitário, e procurámos saber se o paciente, ao fim de seis meses de acompanhamento,
realmente melhorou, nomeadamente em relação aos conflitos anteriormente mencionados.
Organizámos então um estudo de caso, com um aluno do Instituto Superior Técnico, e através
de uma análise temática das transcrições das sessões, verificámos ambas as hipóteses.
ABSTRACT: This study addresses late adolescence from a psychodynamic perspective. In a society where adolescence is increasingly delayed, we aim to illustrate the internal conflicts experienced during this phase, as it is a developmental period marked by significant emotional distress, statistically observed. At this age, we discuss the importance of identity consolidation, achieving narcissistic balance, experiencing depressive reactivation, and undergoing object changes—issues that have now extended into the university context. What responses does higher education in Portugal have to offer to these adolescents in crisis? How does academic pressure hinder the process? We have raised the issue that seeks to question the added value of a psychodynamic service in a university setting, and we sought to determine if the patient, after six months of therapy, has genuinely improved, particularly regarding the conflicts mentioned earlier. We then organized a case study with a student from Instituto Superior Técnico, and through a thematic analysis of session transcripts, we confirmed both hypotheses.
