BORELLE, Azucena. The psychosomatic phenomenon from the standpoint of graphic projective techniques: Research project: test "Two persons" applied to adults with somatic conditions. Subj. procesos cogn. [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.1, pp.41-62. ISSN 1852-7310.

On the basis of epistemic methodological considerations linked to projective techniques (PT) in general, and graphic PT in particular, as well as to the notion of indicator in PT, this research project aims to analyze the graphic and verbal guidelines in the test "Two people" (Bernstein, 1964) of adult 25 to 36 year old individuals with somatic conditions. The research is embedded in a previous course of research aimed at detecting, by means of psychological assessment techniques, the traits of psychological functioning in children and adults manifesting somatic vulnerability,. This article presents the theoretical framework of the research, fundaments the choice of the technique "Two people", states the general and specific objectives, the research design and expected results. Finally, the scope and limitations of the study are discussed as well as its diagnostic value.

Keywords : Projective graphic techniques; Test Two people; Adults; Psychosomatics.
