Syndrome De Capgras: ÉVolution Des Hypotheses

Abstract

French

Objectif:

Retracer l'évolution des hypothèses concernant le syndrome de Capgras.

Méthodes:

Les données consistent en un peu plus de 60 études publiées entre 1866 et 1994 qui ont été sélectionnées en fonction de leur caractère novateur et de leur pertinence quant à la description clinique du syndrome, et quant aux interprétations psychodynamiques, neurologiques et neuropsychologiques.

Résultats:

Deux temps principaux, se chevauchant partiellement, peuvent être dégagés dans l'évolution des hypothèses touchant aux mécanismes du syndrome. Le 1^er, débutant dès 1923, se caractérise par la prédominance des interprétations psychodynamiques. Le 2^e, issu de la constatation de dysfonctionnements organiques dans un pourcentage élevé de cas, s'en différencie par la survenue d'interprétations d'ordre neurologiques, et par quelques hypothèses mixtes.

Conclusions:

Au total cette revue permet de mettre en évidence la grande diversité des points de vue concernant le syndrome. Elle servira de base à l'étude suivante qui vise à montrer que la mise à l'épreuve expérimentale de chacun des points de vue est possible.
