ABSTRACT
The onset of deafblindness profoundly impacts both the individual with this condition and the individual's family, including siblings. While current studies have primarily focused on the impact felt by parents or spouses, the distinct experiences of siblings have received comparatively less attention. This systematic review addresses the existing research gap regarding the psychological and social consequences experienced by siblings of individuals with deafblindness. A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple electronic databases, including PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES, Dissertations & Theses (on ProQuest), ERIC (Education Resources Information Center), International Bibliography of the Social Sciences (IBSS), Sociological Abstracts, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Cairn Info. Seven studies were identified as meeting the eligibility criteria for inclusion. The review revealed that siblings of individuals with deafblindness face psychological and social challenges, including emotions such as feelings of neglect, resentment, embarrassment, jealousy, and anxiety. Siblings also grapple with communication difficulties, contributing to feelings of exclusion and insecurity. In addition, these siblings take on significant responsibilities within the family and encounter obstacles in forming relationships outside the family. These findings underscore the need of interventions to improve the well-being of siblings of individuals with deafblindness by addressing their psycho-emotional needs and promoting positive social interactions. These findings align with studies conducted on siblings of children with other disabilities. However, additional research is crucial to investigate overlooked dimensions, particularly positive factors like coping mechanisms and resilience, that may influence the mental health and social experiences of these siblings.
ABSTRACT
Le présent article propose de mettre en travail l'hypothèse selon laquelle le trouble psychosomatique constitue la trace traumatique d'une expérience passée en attente de subjectivation. Les cas de trois patientes, présentant chacune des manifestations somatiques spécifiques (obésité chez Mme Hera, douleurs physiques pour Christiane, somatisation gynécologique chez Philippa), permettent en effet de mettre en évidence la manière dont l'histoire subjective et surtout un vécu traumatique inélaboré prennent corps à travers leurs maux. Le trouble psychosomatique apparaît à ce titre chez ces sujets comme la rémanence d'une expérience vécue et non enregistrée psychiquement, mais susceptible de symbolisation à la faveur d'un dispositif d'invitation à la parole(AU)
O presente artigo propõe discutir a hipótese de que a perturbação psicossomática constitui um vestígio traumático de uma experiência passada na espera de subjetivação. Os casos de três pacientes que apresentam manifestações somáticas específicas (Sra. Hera, obesidade; Christiane, dores físicas; Philippa, somatização ginecológica) permitem colocar em evidência a maneira como a história subjetiva e principalmente os estados traumáticos não-elaborados materializam-se através de seus males somáticos. As perturbações psicossomáticas aparecem nesses sujeitos como um vestígio remanescente de uma experiência vivida e não registrada psiquicamente, mas suscetível de simbolização por meio do dispositivo da linguagem verbal(AU)
This text proposes to discuss the hypothesis according to psychosomatic trouble constitute a traumatic trace of a past experience looking forward to subjectivation. Three patients' cases with specific somatic manifestations (obesity for Mrs. Hera, aches for Christiane, genital somatization for Philippa) permit to show how subjective history and a traumatic state materialize with somatic troubles. The psychosomatic trouble appears as the trace of an experience psychically undiscribed. Symbolisation appears possible when there is a situation to favour verbal language(AU)
