perceptual distortion  

Définition

  • A condition in which the mates in dysfunctional marital pairs see their spouses as they expect them to be, rather than as they really are, and treat them accordingly. Example: A wife sees her husband as cold and reflecting and thus does not have to confront her lack of sexual desire for him. [Source: The Dictionary of Family Psychology and Family Therapy; perceptual distortion]
