EFFECTS OF PARADOX AND EXPECTANCY ON DEFICITS ASSOCIATED WITH DEPRESSION
Resumen
Este estudo testa a eficácia do modelo paradoxal do Mental Research Institute do Palo Alto (MRI) em reverter sintomas clinicamente definidos como correlatos da depressão. A um grupo de 48 (24 homens e 24 mulheres) pacientes deprimidos internados, foram dadas instruções diferenciadas para um exercício de anagramas que se destinava a medir a quantidade de esforço posta na tarefa. O esforço foi, ora encorajado, ora desencorajado ou simplesmente nem mencionado. A condição de desencorajamento se constituía de um paradoxal terapêutico que incluía uma base racional apropriada. Não houve importantes efeitos no esforço e na expectativa que fossem significativos e nenhuma interrelação significante. Não foi encontrada uma relação entre humor e performance nos anagramas. São discutidas implicações para pesquisas futuras, incluindo-se as possíveis dificuldades encontradas em assegurar a aprovação do institucional review boards para pesquisas envolvendo paradoxo.
