Item ““Sentirse bien con uno mismo” imaginarios sociales sobre la “salud mental” en adolescentes de la ciudad de Cali-Colombia en el año 2021.”(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2021) Diaz Gonzalez Valentina; Conrado Zorrilla Isabella; Mora Villarraga Sofía Alejandra; Bolaños, Diego FernandoObjective Understand the social imaginaries about Mental Health in adolescents in the city of CaliColombia. Method A qualitative research framed in the clinical-oriented “intervention-research” was carried out with which it was sought that the participants achieved subjective elaborations on the object studied. For this, the heuristic method (remember-repeat elaborate) was used. Ten (10) adolescents from socioeconomic strata of the city of Cali-Colombia were selected for convenience in order to show differences in relation to social imaginary about mental health in regard to the respective sociocultural context. Semi-structured interviews were conducted (two -2- per participant). The stories obtained were analyzed discursively, following the principles of psychoanalytic theory. Given what they said, an attitude of suspicion was assumed, also applying psychoanalytic listening. As for the analysis, this was carried out manually (creating tables by categories and by subjects) with the use of Word tools. With this strategy, it was possible to take the main ideas that were read from the perspective of signifiers. The subjects were presented, for their voluntary reading and completion, informed consents / assents and, in the case of minors, parental consent. Results Participating subjects (of both sexes) were between 13 and 18 years old. A variety of results were evidenced aimed at the subjective perspectives of adolescents in relation to mental health, it was also found that some of the subjects have attended psychological consultation, although not all have done so voluntarily and that, in almost the totality of the subjects, the subject of mental health is not one of daily treatment. Conclusion There are similarities in the mental health imaginary that the Cali adolescents participating in this research have, for some it is “feeling good about oneself” for others “not having problems”, likewise, it was found that social, cultural and family contexts influence directly in the perceptions and opinions they have about Mental Health, either supporting the constitution of said social imaginaries or differing from them.
