- Abstract
This study presents the Method for Assessment of Mentalization in the Interpersonal Context (MEMCI) as an approach to assess the reflective function in parents. According to the mentalization theory, the possibility that infants in their development achieve the representation of mental states is strongly associated to a "good enough parental mentalization". In addition, it is proposed that the therapeutic work, in whatever form, involves a promotion of mentalization. From this premise, capturing the presence or absence of mentalization processes in the psyche of parental figures represents a key component of the therapy. In the present study we provide a clinical vignette to illustrate the application of MEMCI in assessing reflective function of a mother.
