ABSTRACT
This article addresses the topic involving the psychoanalysis-science
relationship. Its scientific relevance lies in the dimension of academic
discussion, which shows the advances and everything that Psychoanalysis has
promoted in terms of scientific discoveries, influencing thinking in all
segments of the human and social sciences. Its social relevance lies in
clarifying to the general public that it is not a science but a technique that,
applied to an object, achieves great success in solving nervous problems. This
is a bibliographical, factual, analytical, interpretative research, based on
technical knowledge. Science tends to reduce everything to the individual and
the simple, so that it can study each case in isolation, while Psychoanalysis,
even when dealing with isolated individuals, cannot dissociate all the elements
of the human, having to carry out their interpretation from a set of always
interconnected data. Freud knew this very well and, as much as he fought to
have his technique recognized as a science, we have to interpret this concept
in the Master's thinking, which was something very specific in relation to his
practice. When we think about approaching the theme of the
psychoanalysis-science relationship, it becomes very complex, because given the
fact that its object of work is not palpable and the subject possessing this
object is volatile to temporal and spatial action, what Natural sciences call
it confrontation with data, it does not apply to Psychoanalysis. It is a
technique that, when applied in a correct, organized, systematic way, produces
excellent therapeutic healing results and these, once compiled in the records,
serves as guidance guides, enabling a broad understanding of the social object
with which the health sciences are concerned social character, which is the
human being.
Keywords: Sigmund Freud; Psychoanalysis; Science; Psychoanalysis-Science Relationship.
