RESUMO

In the psychological literature, we have found researches performed with twins where the aim was to study the influence of genetic factors versus environmental ones in the structuring of the personality and also in the field of the psychology. However, there are few reports of researches related to the twinsintra-pair interaction and between the twins and their caretakers, especially in relation to the oedipal issues. The phenomenon, so studied by the psychoanalysis, has been little investigated in the experience of triangular situations between the co-twins and their parents. Esther Bick method of Psychoanalytic Observation model inspired the planning of this thesis, which has as its objectives: to observe and to describe the oppose triangular relationships between the twins and their parents during the first year of life; to analyze the possibility that the oedipal triangulation may happen essentially between the pair of twins; to verify if the "real presence" of the co-twin could exacerbate the existence as a "third excluded" between the twins. Five pairs of just born twins and their respective families participated in the study; among them we have two male pairs (monozygotic and dizygotic twins), two female pairs (monozygotic and dizygotic twins) and a pair of different sexes. Weekly visits were carried out with an hour duration each, to the twinsresidences, during the first year of life, in order to observe the twins and their caretakers. The observer could witness what happened in the twinsintra-pair relationship, as well as between the twins and among the other people present. After each observation session a report was elaborated including the observed behaviors and the observers perceptions related to the facts. The following observed phenomena were specially studied in the twinsfamilies: individual attendance mother-twin; pair attendance mother-twins; dispute of mothers holding/attention; father-twins attendance; twinsintra-pair relationship. The triangular relationships involving the co-twins and their parents were analyzed, having as its subsidy Freuds and Kleins theories regarding to oedipal relations. It has been noticed four triangular relationship forms besides the triangle son-mother-father oedipal one in the studied families.
