INFLUÊNCIA DO DUPLO VÍNCULO NAS RELAÇÕES INTERPESSOAIS E INTRAPESSOAL

Abstract

The Double Bind Theory (DBT) was built from the analysis of communication processes and configures itself with the structuring of a paradoxical situation, in which “no matter what a person does, he can never win”. The present work aims to study the Batesonian concept of Double Bond in relational dynamics through a Literature Review in national publications. The following databases were used: Scielo, BDTD, Index Psi and Google Scholar. Guided by the following guiding questions: What is published in Brazil about the Double Bind in relational dynamics? Does DBT only serve to explain the genesis of schizophrenia? Eight articles were selected. It was identified that DBT is present in relational dynamics in five contexts: in the organizational context; in the context of jealousy in the marital context; on a game platform – Undertale and in the speech of the current President of the Republic. It was observed that DBT seems not to have gained the relevance it deserved for having its history initially connected to schizophrenia, but that the described phenomenon has shown to have influences at another level of analysis: in relational dynamics - professional, family and marital, in addition to being an agent of strong impasses in political institutions, showing the multifaceted character that DBT can have. In this sense, the idea that the DBT would be just an explanation from the non-organic point of view for the etiology of the schizophrenic disorder is incomplete and simplistic, as the phenomenon of the DB appeared both in individual and social spheres. Recognizing the limitations of this research, further studies are suggested to explore the phenomenon of Double Bind, considering the characteristics and vicissitudes of intra and interpersonal communication, as well as the possibilities of intervention and restructuring for more effective communications.
