Abstract

The clinical use of the report in the clinical psychological training involves a primary reflection on the nature of the data being studied, the type of reading it calls for, the kind of use, and the perspective from which to start (what use will we make of it and why?). I will try not to take for granted the conceptual factors linking the psychodynamic perspective in its contextual, socioconstructivist version (Salvatore et al., 2003), with the interest in the process and the semiotic and dialogical context of reporting. In order to examine this link in detail, in the first part I will give some considerations on the nature of meaning, which enable us to recognise the constructive, dialogic, contextual and contingent nature of the product and the process of reporting to someone else; in the second part I will take up some elements of clinical theory and its outcome, to enable us, in the frame of sense emerging from this dialogic exchange, to identify an object and a significant purpose of the supervision function. Lastly, in the third part, in order to make a detailed examination of some of the methodological implications suggested by this perspective, I will present a supervision device which involves a reflexive function on the meanings that are gradually constructed by the trainees in the context of the meeting. The report seems to me an useful tool in order to promote this reflexive function.
