Abstract(s)
Possuir a capacidade de identificar as emoções e atribuir-lhes significado, é fundamental
para a saúde mental dos adolescentes. Desta forma, facilitar o acesso às emoções e à sua
expressão abre as portas à possibilidade dos adolescentes elaborarem as suas vivências,
redifinirem significados e melhorarem a sua vida emocional, diminuindo os riscos para a sua
saúde mental.
Neste sentido, o projeto de investigação “Em busca das palavras – Mediadores
expressivos e expressão das emoções nos adolescentes” é um projeto de investigação acção com abordagem mista (qualitativa e quantitativa), que pretende desenvolver uma
intervenção terapêutica com um grupo de adolescentes, com recursos aos mediadores
expressivos como facilitadores do acesso às emoções e à sua expressão.
A intervenção desenvolveu-se com um grupo terapêutico de 6 adolescentes, em contexto
de Hospital de Dia, com idades compreendidas entre os 14 e os 18 anos, mediado por dois
Enfermeiros Especialistas em Enfermagem de Saúde Mental e Psiquiátrica.
Foram planeadas 11 atividades para serem realizadas em 12 sessões, com a duração de
90 minutos cada, com recurso ao desenho, à pintura e à modelagem como mediadores
expressivos, tendo por base o modelo do Continuum das Terapias Expressivas de Hinz
(2009).
A recolha e análise dos dados envolveu a observação participante, com recurso a notas
de campo. Foi também aplicada a Escala da Expressividade Emocional (Kring, Smith, &
Neale, 1994), validada para a população portuguesa, aplicada em dois momentos – antes
do início do projeto e no final.
A nível dos resultados, verificou-se que a utilização dos mediadores expressivos facilitou
o acesso às emoções e a capacidade de expressão oral dos adolescentes, tendo melhorado
a sua capacidade de exprimir as emoções e do reconhecimento destas pelo Outro.
Having the ability to identify emotions and attribute meaning to them is fundamental me adolescents’ mental health. Thus, facilitating access to emotions and their expression opens the door to the possibility for adolescents to elaborate their experiences, redeem meanings and improve their emotional life, reducing the risks to their mental health. In this line of thought, the research project “Em busca das palavras – Mediadores expressivos e expressão das emoções nos adolescentes”, is an action-research project with a mixed approach (qualitative and quantitative), which aims to develop a therapeutic intervention for groups of adolescents, with resources to expressive mediators as facilitators of access to emotions and their expression. The intervention was developed with a therapeutic group of 6 adolescents, in the context of Day Hospital, aged between 14 and 18 years, mediated by two Specialist Nurses in Mental and Psychiatric Health Nursing. Eleven activities were planned for twelve sessions, lasting 90 minutes each, using drawing, painting and modeling as expressive mediators, based on the Hinz Expressive Therapies Continuum model (2009). Data collection and analysis involved participant observation using field notes. The Emotional Expressiveness Scale (Kring, Smith, & Neale, 1994) was also applied, validated for the Portuguese population, applied in two moments – before the beginning of the project and at the end. As for the results, it was found that the use of expressive mediators facilitated access to emotions and the adolescents’ ability of oral expression, which improved their ability to express emotions and their recognition by the Other.
