Psicol. caribe [online]. 2020, vol.37, n.2, pp.88-110. Epub Aug 18, 2021. ISSN 0123-417X. https://doi.org/10.14482/psdc.37.2.155.2.
In the last years, the rise in the number of separations and divorces has contributed to the increase of the demands related to cases of parental Alienation (PA) both in the legal disputes for custody and in the clinics of psychology. Considering the impacts of this condition, the present study aimed to investigate which are the feelings and personality traits present in the parents that can contribute to the presentation of PA. An integrative literature review was conducted by consulting the virtual databases Vhl, Scielo, Pepsic, Pubmed and PsycINFO. Initially, 418 articles were found, after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, nine studies remained. The main findings suggest that the aggressiveness predominate in the alienating parents, followed by feelings associated with danger and sadness. About the personality, histrionic, narcissistic and paranoid personality traits were observed. New studies that investigate the personality of alienating parents are needed, as well as the development and implementation of laws that make mandatory the presence of psychological counseling during legal proceedings related to PA.
