Abstract: | The aim of this pilot study is to analyse the discourse of fathers of toddlers concerning fatherhood and the link between
some particularities in the discourse and family alliance. The sample consists of 13 Swiss first time fathers (5 fathers of
girls and 8 of boys). In order to evaluate the paternal discourse, the fathers were given a semistructured interview, which
was later analysed using the research package Alceste. The family alliance, i.e., the degree of coordination among the partners
when executing a task together, was assessed through the Lausanne Trilogue Play (Fivaz-Depeursinge & Corboz-Warnery, 1999).
The main results indicated an interesting link between classes of paternal discourse grouped around the following themes “affective
relationship”, “daily routine” and “educational goals”, and the family alliance (defined in two major categories; functional
and problematic alliances). Finally, clinical perspectives on links between paternal representations and family functioning
at an interactive level are discussed. |
