Abstract

Aim of this account is to discuss and examine closely the importance of fiction in pedagogical field and in Adler's orientated analytical treatment. It concerns various sectors wich require differences in methods even if they are linked by a common principle: a modern vision of the "persona" holistically analized, moving towards fictional purposes inside of his/her phenomenal field. It has been useful for the educator to gather the fictional goals of the youth in order to stimulate him/her in the direction of the positive ones. In psychotherapy it is of great importance for the analyst to begin with the "strengthened fiction" so that to journey of properly states intermediate fiction. In pedagogical field, on the basis of socioteleological theory, fiction helps the developping of a social feeling at a conscious level. In psychotherapy, unmasking fictional purposes has a double function: it prevents the patient to get away from reality by means of fictional purposes and it gives him/her the opportunity to use them to get an aim in real life
