    The thesis aims at analyzing the experience of fraternal-relationship development between biological and adopted children. In order to achieve that, two studies are reported. In the first one, the participants were members of four families who experienced the adoption of one or more children or adolescents having already one or more biological children born from the same father and mother before the adoption process. It was a longitudinal study, and it monitored the families throughout the course of one year. We used as sources for data collection semi-structured interviews with parents, children and teenagers. The semistructured interviews were conducted every three months so as to follow the process of fraternal-relationship development. A genogram was also used as an instrument allowing to investigate how participants perceived the interpersonal relations between the Family members both at the beginning and end of data collection. The second study involved four adults who experienced adoption in a family with biological children, and six adult biological children who experienced the adoption of a sibling in childhood or adolescence. Data collection was conducted through narrative interviews, which explored the participants’ life story from the moment of adoption to present moment. Data was then treated through phenomenological analysis in both studies, which allowed the construction of narratives for data presentation. The research was interested in the development of fraternal relationships based on the participants' perception, as there were no previous hypotheses. The main theory used in discussions was the Bioecological Theory of Human Development (BTHD), which was adequate for a broad understanding of the phenomenon. According to BTHD, the development of any relation requires the occurrence of interactions called proximal processes. Therefore, we sought to understand how people and the context around them influenced the emergence and maintenance of proximal processes over time. The discussion of data revealed that personal characteristics of dispositions and resources are necessary, and they need to be directed towards the engagement in joint activities between siblings. Such activities should take place over a long period of time and be favored by a context in which there is positive parental intervention in fraternal relationships. These conditions seem to favor a positive fraternal relationship. When this is not yet possible in childhood or adolescence, adulthood maturity may be an updating factor capable of allowing proximal processes to approach siblings. However, when mutual positive perceptions is formed from infancy, the relationships seem to be stronger and lasting in adulthood
