“…Here, defense mechanisms (DMs) represent the psychological processes that mediate the person's reaction and have been the subject of empirical studies over the last 50 years. While the role they play in modifying certain human behaviors has received little attention from the socio-cognitive literature in the past, there has recently been a growing interest in developing integrative models that connect psychodynamic data and cognitive neuroscience to enrich our understanding of the mind and brain (Axmacher et al, 2014;di Giannantonio et al, 2020).…”

Research on cognitive processes has primarily focused on cognitive control and inhibitory processes to the detriment of other psychological processes, such as defense mechanisms (DMs), which can be used to modify aggressive impulses as well as self/other images during interpersonal conflicts. First, we conducted an in-depth theoretical analysis of three socio-cognitive models and three psychodynamic models and compared main propositions regarding the source of aggression and processes that influence its enactment. Second, 32 participants completed the Hostile Expectancy Violation Paradigm (HEVP) in which scenarios describe a hostile vs. non-hostile social context followed by a character's ambiguous aversive behavior. The N400 effect to critical words that violate expected hostile vs. non-hostile intent of the behavior was analyzed. Prepotent response inhibition was measured using a Stop Signal task (SST) and DMs were assessed with the Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ-60). Results showed that reactive aggression and HIA were not significantly correlated with response inhibition but were significantly positively and negatively correlated with image distorting defense style and adaptive defense style, respectively. The present article has highlighted the importance of integrating socio-cognitive and psychodynamic models to account for the full complexity underlying psychological processes that influence reactive aggressive behavior.

“…A intervenção em psicoterapia psicanalítica e em psicoterapia breve vem sendo objeto de muitos estudos na atualidade (Axmacher et al, 2014;Campezzato et al, 2014;Cassel et al, 2015;Costa & Melnik, 2016;de Greck et al, 2013;Leichsering, Rabung & Leibing, 2004). As pesquisas sobre mudança em psicoterapia (Cortiñas, 2013;Honda & Yoshida, 2013;Younes et al, 2010), tendo seu foco principal na elucidação dos critérios de mudança, ou seja, que capacidades o paciente deve ter alcançado após a realização este tipo de intervenção.…”

“…Diversas pesquisas vêm sendo realizadas e salientam a importância da psicoterapia psicanalítica (Axmacher, Kessler & Waldhauser, 2014;Campezzato, Nunes & Silva, 2014;Cassel et al, 2015;Costa & Melnik, 2016;de Greck et al, 2013) como um meio de apoio para pacientes com diferentes demandas, que necessitam obter melhora de seu funcionamento psíquico. A utilização da técnica da Psicoterapia Breve Dinâmica, que pressupõe um tempo específico de acompanhamento, tem demonstrado bons resultados na capacidade para lidar com situações de crise (Cortiñas, 2013;Honda & Yoshida, 2013;Younes, Lessa, Yamamoto, Coniaric & Ditzz, 2010).…”

A doença e a hospitalização infantil acarretam um impacto emocional para familiares e, principalmente, para mães que usualmente são as principais acompanhantes durante a hospitalização. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a percepção de mães de crianças, internadas em centro terciário de saúde, sobre o acompanhamento psicoterápico que receberam nesta fase. Uma entrevista foi utilizada para a coleta dos dados e a análise de conteúdo foi realizada para a categorização dos resultados.
