Understanding the associations between the five-factor model, harmful alcohol consumption and problematic internet use in university students
Alcohol consumption and Internet use are highly prevalent behaviours among young adults and previous research has suggested that different addictive behaviours might be distinctly associated with personality. This study examined the role of big-5 personality traits in alcohol consumption and Internet use. Alcohol consumption, internet use, and personality traits were assessed on 457 Portuguese university students. Higher levels of neuroticism, an…

This intervention has several potential advantages, such as accessibility and cost-effectiveness.Objectives This study aimed to explore the efficacy of a specific type of single-session therapy based on narrative therapy. This study was conducted at a Brazilian university…
Teorias Da Motivação Dos Trabalhadores E Contabilidade De Gestão
Diante deste cenário dado, objetiva-se extrair da inerente judicialização de políticas públicas de saúde, uma fonte de análise sobre a forma corrente de comportamento institucional do Estado, e propor um ajuste na alegação genérica do Princípio da Reserva do Possível, para que se utilize a oportunidade da judicialização como forma de investigação dos motivos da inefetividade supostamente denunciada na demanda judicial.Aprofunda-se com o estudo o …
The Meaning in Loss protocol
For a minority of the bereaved, the loss of a significant other can trigger an overwhelming emotional reaction and impaired functioning across life domains, known as prolonged grief disorder (PGD). Hence, ongoing efforts have been made to refine existing treatments to increase their efficacy and to accommodate the idiosyncrasies of grief reactions. This study presents the results of an open clinical trial of the feasibility and effectiveness of t…
Penn State Worry Questionnaire in emotional disorders
Worry is a phenomenon that is present in multiple psychopathologies. Given the widely accepted transdiagnostic role that worry plays in psychopathology, reliable measures for this construct are pivotal for clinical practice. The Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) is one of the most widely used and established measures of worry in both clinical and non-clinical populations and it is accepted as a highly reliable measure. The present study aimed…
Facilitating Narrative Change in Career Construction Counseling
Career Construction Counseling fosters client change by evoking and elaborating innovative moments in client narratives. In this article, we describe four types of dialogues that counselors may use to prompt narrative novelty and foster client change: (a) identify and evaluate the effects of innovative moments, (b) highlight contrasting self-positions, (c) ask about changes achieved, (d) promote a meta-perspective on change. Vignettes from a case…
Innovative moments on online Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for alcohol dependence
Online Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a promising intervention for reducing alcohol consumption among the population. However, due to the lack of studies in the area, the present study aims to evaluate the effects of the therapeutic process of online CBT for alcohol addicts in a Brazilian sample. Thirty-six recordings of six male participants diagnosed with alcohol dependence, who sought treatment to cease or reduce the substance’s consum…
Ambivalence Resolution in Meaning Reconstruction Grief Therapy
In psychotherapy, ambivalence may be conceptualized as a conflict between two distinct motivations: one that is favorable to change (pro-change) and another that favors the maintenance of a problematic pattern (pro status quo). Previous studies identified two processes by which clients resolve this conflict: imposing the innovative part and silencing the problematic one (dominance), and establishing negotiations between the innovative and the pro…
Ambivalence, resistance, and alliance ruptures in psychotherapy
Ambivalence, resistance, and alliance ruptures are three terms commonly used in psychotherapy, across different theoretical approaches and modalities. However, it is still not clear how those terms are related and how the connection can be used to maintain a therapeutic alliance while addressing clients' ambivalence. This paper aims to briefly describe ambivalence and resistance, describing their impact on psychotherapy process; reintroduce the t…
Disengagement from Political Violence and Deradicalization
This article applies a dialogical analysis to the change processes involved in moving from engagement with to disengagement from an armed militant group, as well as from radicalization to deradicalization. The findings underline the interplay between different push and pull factors at individual, organizational, and societal levels that played a role in the already mentioned processes in three periods of time—engagement with, life within, and dis…
How Reconceptualization of the Self Is Negotiated in Psychotherapy
This case study explores the collaboration that occurs between therapist and client when reconceptualization innovative moments emerge. Reconceptualization innovative moments are exceptions to the problematic self-narrative that brought the client to therapy and are associated with successful psychotherapy. Reconceptualization innovative moments have two main components: a contrast between a past problematic facet and a current, more adjusted one…
Values’ family flow
The present study analyzed cross-generational trends in values and family patterns of value association across three generations (grandparents, parents and children). In this study, 101 family triads with adolescent children (N = 303) completed questionnaires assessing personal values. Grandparents’ values (Generation 1) were measured through parents’ perceptions of their own parents. In general, parents prioritize collectivist values, and there …
Ambivalence in grief therapy
This article explores the role of ambivalence in grief therapy within a narrative framework. From this perspective, change starts with the occurrence of innovative moments, which can be nullified by reaffirmation of the problematic self-narrative as a sign of ambivalence. This study analyzed ambivalence in six complicated grief cases using the "Return to the Problem Coding System." Markers of ambivalence emerged in all cases, with a decreasing pr…
Momentos de inovação em psicoterapia
Partindo da proposta de Frank (1961), de que a mudança psicoterapêutica envolve uma mudança nos significados, sugerimos que os significados se organizam em narrativas cujos autores (I-positions, segundo Hermans) contam de uma forma activa as suas histórias. No sentido de estudar a mudança em psicoterapia, e partindo destas assunções, desenvolvemos o Sistema de Codificação de Momentos de Inovação, que fornece um método fiável e sistemático de iden…
Mudança terapêutica e momentos de inovação
De acordo com White e Epston (1990), a construção da mudança em psicoterapia ocorre a partir da ampliação de resultados únicos, ou de momentos de inovação (MIs), como preferimos denominá-los. Os resultados únicos são excepções à história saturada pelo problema que podem viabilizar uma nova narrativa. Neste estudo, analisam-se os MIs em cinco casos com bons resultados terapêuticos e cinco casos com reduzido sucesso terapêutico. Os resultados revel…
Human Development in the Life Course
Drawing on philosophy, the history of psychology and the natural sciences, this book proposes a new theoretical foundation for the psychology of the life course. It features the study of unique individual life courses in their social and cultural environment, combining the perspectives of developmental and sociocultural psychology, psychotherapy, learning sciences and geronto-psychology. In particular, the book highlights semiotic processes, spec…

Interacção terapêutica em momentos de ambivalência
No processo psicoterapêutico a mudança constrói-se através da emergência e expansão de excepções ao funcionamento problemático do cliente. Contudo, o potencial de mudança destas excepções ou inovações pode ser abortado através da atenuação do seu significado quando o cliente as desvaloriza, trivializa ou nega. Quando este processo se repete ao longo da terapia estamos na presença de ambivalência, na medida em que ocorre uma oscilação recorrente e…
Dialogic Formations
This volume understands itself as an invitation to follow a fundamental shift in perspective, away from the self-contained ‘I’ of Western conventions, and towards a relational self, where development and change are contingent on otherness. In the framework of ‘Dialogical Self Theory’ (Hermans & Hermans-Konopka, 2010; Hermans & Gieser, 2012), it is precisely the forms of interaction and exchange with others and with the world that determine the co…
Innovative Moments in Grief Therapy
This article presents an intensive analysis of a good outcome case of constructivist grief therapy with a bereaved mother, using the Innovative Moments Coding System (IMCS). Inspired by M. White and D. Epston's narrative therapy, the IMCS conceptualizes therapeutic change as resulting from the elaboration and expansion of unique outcomes (or as we prefer, innovative moments), referring to experiences not predicted by the problematic or dominant s…

From "Chastity As a Gift" to "Doing It As a Sign of Love
This study aims to analyze the media discourse about feminine sexuality produced by Portuguese magazines. Texts about female sexuality published in six types of magazines between 1965 and 2006 were content analyzed. The results showed that Portuguese media's discourse on sexuality is not only becoming more liberal but is also characterized by ambiguity and contradiction. Within a "progressive" discursive framework for sexuality, tensions and doub…
Maintenance and Transformation of Problematic Self-Narratives
This study focuses on how the emergence of innovative moments (IMs), which are exceptions to a person's dominant self-narrative (i.e., his or her usual way of understanding and experiencing), progresses to the construction of a new self-narrative. IMs challenge a person's current framework of understanding and experiencing, generating uncertainty. When uncertainty is excessively threatening, a semiotic strategy to deal with it often emerges: atte…
Commentary
This commentary focuses on Ligorio’s (2010) and O’Sullivan-Lago and de Abreu’s (2010) work as an opportunity to elaborate upon discontinuity emergence and continuity restoration within the Dialogical Self. We depart from the pair rupture—transition as a unit of analysis for understanding the flow of change within the Dialogical Self and the centrality of ambivalence as a development catalyser to focus on the way change and maintenance of problema…
Commentary
This commentary focuses on Cross’s (2010, this issue) work as an opportunity to elaborate upon how to study narrative-dialogical processes from the perspective of complexity. We start by elaborating on the notion that narrative development is a multidimensional activity that extends through several organizational levels and on the limitations of conventional research methods for narrative analysis. Following this, we focus on our experience of re…

Commentary
This commentary focuses on König's (2009) work as an opportunity to elaborate on selfhood as a dynamic and dialogical phenomenon. We depart from Bakhtinian dialogism and dialogical self theory to focus on the dynamics of selfhood processes and draw a more explicit theoretical link between the dialogical self and phenomenological experience. The interconnected dimensions of discontinuity and continuity in a multiple, multipositioned self are also …
