Abstract

This paper aims to describe and analyze the different ways to use  image - photography, film or video - already used by clinicians and researchers as research tools in the child mental health. The theme proved to be appropriate, given the increasing use of audiovisual techniques in experimental research and the different proposals for mental health care for children. The analysis to be developed here starts from  psychoanalytic studies' vertex and from the establishment of four major categories that have marked the use of moving image in that field. They are: video as a vehicle of choice for termination of the effects of early separation during the Second World War, the use of videos in experimental research with the aim of producing scientific knowledge (primatology, specific protocols, development), production and use of video as part of a diagnostic or therapeutic intervention, and the rescue of family films as background material for the diagnosis and treatment of children / adults with serious mental disorders.
