“…While the Covid-19 pandemic has forced many countries to pay attention to e-health and to remote devices, it has also made it possible to increase the call for studies in the clinical psychology and psychopathology of digital relationships, a field in which few or no studies have been undertaken. Clinical psychologists working in this field have essentially focused on analyzing the psychic processes associated with certain therapeutic tools such as digital mediations via video games (Gillet, 2018;Haza, 2019;Gillet and Jung, 2022;Haza and Hung, 2022;Tisseron and Tordo, 2022). Others studies have analyzed the uses of digital technology, undertaken a psycho(patho)logy of our daily virtual reality (Tisseron, 2012;Vlachopoulou and Missonnier, 2019).…”

IntroductionDuring the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting visitation restrictions, digital tools were used in many nursing homes in France to allow the older adults and their relatives to maintain social contact via videoconferencing. This article adopts an interdisciplinary approach to analyze the processes that affect the use of digital technologies.MethodsDrawing on the concept of “mediation,” it seeks to shed light on how individuals embrace these tools in a relational situation. The interviews and observations undertaken among residents, their relatives, professionals, and the management head of seven nursing homes in 2021, make it possible to outline the different forms of practices and uses and to identify the factors leading to the variations observed.ResultsWhile the key objective of these technical and technological tools is to compensate – on a functional level – for the communication problems and the isolation of individuals in order to promote residents’ “quality of life” by maintaining “social contact,” our study reveals that these tools’ uses and practices largely differ. It also shows considerable inequalities in terms of residents’ acquisition of subjective feelings of ownership of the tools. These are never attributed to isolated physical, cognitive, psychic, and social difficulties, but are influenced by specific organizational, interactional, and psychic configurations. Some of the structures analyzed revealed situations in which mediation failed, occasionally exposing the risk associated with seeking “ties at all costs,” or revealing a disturbing strangeness when residents were placed in front of screens. Some configurations, however, showed that it was possible to set up an intermediate space for the experience to unfold, which in turn opened up a space where individuals, groups, and institutions could experiment, allowing them to develop subjective feelings of ownership of this experience.DiscussionThis article discusses how the configurations that failed to promote the mediation process reveal the need to assess the representations of care and assistance in the relationships between older adults, their loved ones, and nursing home professionals. Indeed, in certain situations, the use of videoconferencing, while seeking to produce a positive effect, risks displacing and increasing the effects of the “negative” associated with dependency, which may worsen individuals’ difficulties within nursing homes. The risks associated with the failure to take into account residents’ requests and consent explain why it is important to discuss how certain uses of digital tools may renew the dilemma between concerns for protection, on the one hand, and respect for autonomy on the other.

Dans cet article, nous souhaitons explorer un effet psychique spécifique induit par l’utilisation d’un dispositif vidéo-interactif en psychothérapie à médiation en nous penchant sur le contre-transfert du thérapeute. Nous soutenons l’hypothèse que le recours à l’écran vidéo implique des effets qui ne sont repérables qu’après coup. Pour cela, nous nous appuyons sur un précédent travail qui a consisté à élaborer une analyse de la littérature scientifique d’inspiration psychanalytique traitant de l’utilisation du jeu vidéo en psychothérapie, à la lumière du modèle de l’approche psychodynamique de la médiation thérapeutique développé par l’École lyonnaise. Ce travail de relecture nous permet de proposer une « clinique de la théorie » à partir de laquelle nous mettons en évidence l’existence d’un phénomène de « pénétration agie » de la problématique d’utilisation d’un objet technique doté d’un écran dans la manière de penser et de pratiquer la médiation thérapeutique avec le jeu vidéo. En appui sur notre expérience, nous proposons de repérer les soubassements du processus d’immersion vidéo-interactive en montrant que le recours à l’écran produit un « effet de cadre » qui affecte le contre-transfert du thérapeute et son travail d’observation clinique.
