Abstract

This  work  aims to  produce   knowledge  about  the  experiences  of preparing tbeses  in tbesis  students  of the Degree  in Psychology  from  tbe  FHAyCS-UADER,  and it pay attention to tbe position  of tbe subjects of tbese experiences. Categories: experience  and subjective  position  are worked  from  Walter Benjamín  and Jacques  Lacan, with  the help of Vignale (2011), Rosas (1999); Eidelsztein (2009) and Miller (2011). According to tbe research subject,  tbe  metbodological  strategy  chosen  is  qualitative,  using  tbe  techniques   of  open interview (Taylor & Bogdan,  1987)  and life history interview (Cornejo et al, 2008)  for the construction of the data, and identification  of meaningful phrases  (Badana  & Diaz,  2001) and discursive modalizers  analysis (Fuentes Rodríguez, 1991)  for the analysis. The results lead us to take into  consideration  the meaning  that  thesis  students  give  to the thesis  and situate the other-pair and the Other-institutional  in  a central  place of the experience.  At tbe  same time, the analysis of tbe subjective position  of thesis students  warns  about tbe possibilities of the process  of making  thesis to result in the metaphorical effect: student  / psychologist.
