Género, hombres, y corporeidad: Un estudio narrativo complejo

Abstract

This research-intervention work is part of the training process of the Master's Degree in Clinical and Family Psychology of the Santo Tomás University, as part of the macroproject "Family stories and narratives in diverse contexts". The objective is to understand the narrative construction of the notion of gender in men who attend the Psychological Attention Service of the USTA, in order to favor the emergence of blurring around this notion, from the narrative intervention systemically oriented to the significance of corporeality, for the emergence of generative processes; the aforementioned framed from the qualitative research of the second order in a methodological design that includes elements of the reflexive and ethnomethodological method, from a constructionist-constructivist-systemic-complex perspective in a clinical consulting process. Initially 4 men who participated in individual processes with clinical dilemmas related to the difficulty in the construction of the links, referred by their therapists, from the consideration of the contribution of the consultancy to the development of their processes were summoned. During the process, 4 reflective conversational scenarios and a focus group were carried out, with the presence of the participants and their referring therapists; where it was possible to account for the configuration of rare narratives around the genre, and of blurring in their stories, not integrated into their experience, which since the resignification of the corporeality, had a different place, characterized by its expansion and the recognition of new ways of living gender as a dynamic experience enabling the emergence of generative processes. From there, as a theoretical contribution a concept of transdisciplinary gender was proposed, which recognizes in psychology, and in the systemic approach, important participants in the approach to gender as part of clinical dilemas; and from narratives and awareness of the corporeality, as possibilities in the clinical intervention, because from the experience in the scenarios performed, it is possible to consider that them participate in the emergence of changes in the notion of gender, and the link and relational experience of the participating men, such as they recognize it, their referring therapists, and the results and conclusions presented in this research / intervention work. Where, in addition, a bet was made on the conversation between individual intervention from psychotherapy, and systemic clinical consulting, particularly in the SAP of the USTA.
