This article stems from an interest taken in discussing the usage of the terms ambivalence and ambiguity, which are very present in Psychology’s publications and savoir faire. It is important to reiterate that in common sense and even in scientific publications these terms are often used as synonyms or notions of little conceptual delimitation. The relevance of such differentiation is proposed once these notions participates of the emergence of the new in human subjective experience, and, in a methodological approach, ambiguity and ambivalence are dimensions that leads the researcher goes beyond a repetitive sterile description of the subject’s speech, moving towards new perspectives of the psychological data. This paper aims to retrieve the qualifying power of such notions by making a broader reflection on the functions of language in the production of interpretive realities. We also propose to bring up a reflection about ambiguity in the construction of meaning and to reiterate ambivalences as inherent to human nature, its affective record and the process of human becoming. As a way to explain the proposed themes, we will analyse an excerpt from the documentary “Últimas Conversas”, produced by the Brazilian filmmaker Eduardo Coutinho, in which high school students from public state schools in Rio de Janeiro tell their stories, speaking of dreams and shared challenges. The character Rafaela was selected for this article because of the emergence of unspeakable emotions from her narrative about an expected future as a promise of reconciliation with the alterity of her life story.

这篇文章源于对讨论术语矛盾和歧义的使用的兴趣，这些术语在心理学的出版物和专业知识中非常常见. 需要重申的是，在常识中，甚至在科学出版物中，这些术语通常用作同义词或几乎没有概念界定的概念。一旦这些概念参与了人类主观经验中新事物的出现，就会提出这种区分的相关性，并且在方法论方法中，歧义和矛盾心理是导致研究人员超越对主题演讲的重复乏味描述的维度，移动对心理数据的新观点。本文旨在通过对语言在解释现实生产中的功能进行更广泛的反思，来检索这些概念的限定能力。我们还建议对意义建构中的歧义进行反思，并重申人性、其情感记录和人类成长过程所固有的矛盾心理。为了解释提议的主题，我们将分析巴西电影制片人爱德华多·库蒂尼奥（Eduardo Coutinho）制作的纪录片“Últimas Conversas”的摘录，其中里约热内卢公立学校的高中生讲述他们的故事，谈到梦想和共同的挑战。之所以选择拉斐拉这个角色，是因为她对预期未来的叙述中出现了难以言喻的情感，作为与她生活故事的异质性和解的承诺。我们将分析由巴西电影制片人爱德华多·库蒂尼奥 (Eduardo Coutinho) 制作的纪录片“Últimas Conversas”的节选，其中里约热内卢公立学校的高中生讲述了他们的故事，讲述了梦想和共同的挑战。之所以选择拉斐拉这个角色，是因为她对预期未来的叙述中出现了难以言喻的情感，作为与她生活故事的异质性和解的承诺。我们将分析由巴西电影制片人爱德华多·库蒂尼奥 (Eduardo Coutinho) 制作的纪录片“Últimas Conversas”的节选，其中里约热内卢公立学校的高中生讲述了他们的故事，讲述了梦想和共同的挑战。之所以选择拉斐拉这个角色，是因为她对预期未来的叙述中出现了难以言喻的情感，作为与她生活故事的异质性和解的承诺。
