“…Similar to literature, cinema is not supposed to have a single meaning, and can be considered a complementary way of thinking about the world [32,33]. Moreover, it is through emotion, whose power is to disturb the equilibrium of psyche [34], that screened fiction stirs people’s psyche, nonetheless the emotions aroused by cinema refer to a virtual world and therefore have the potential to increase the individuals’ self-awareness while making them feel relatively “safe” [34,35]. …”

BackgroundMedical schools are currently charged with a lack of education as far as empathic/relational skills and the meaning of being a health-care provider are concerned, thus leading to increased interest in medical humanities.DiscussionMedical humanities can offer an insight into human illness and in a broader outlook into human condition, understanding of one self, responsibility. An empathic relation to patients might be fostered by a matching approach to humanities and sciences, which should be considered as subjects of equal relevance, complementary to one another. Recently, movies have been used in medical – especially psychiatric - trainees education, but mainly within the limits of teaching a variety of disorders. A different approach dealing with the use of cinema in the training of psychiatry residents is proposed, based on Jung and Hillman’s considerations about the relation between images and archetypes, archetypal experience and learning.SummarySelected full-length movies or clips can offer a priceless opportunity to face with the meaning of being involved in a care-providing, helping profession.

“…Counselling psychology studies have demonstrated that good therapeutic outcomes are attributed to the use of metaphor by counsellors (McMullen, 1989;Levitt, Korman, & Angus, 2000) and that the use of therapist-introduced metaphor is as effective as a psycho-educational approach (Parker & Wampler, 2006;Powell, Newgent, & Lee, 2006). Furthermore, metaphors are useful for exploring cultural differences and promoting multicultural understanding (Abernethy, 2002).…”

“…Smit (2007: 89-99) also used Therapist-Generated Metaphor to increase self-esteem of his client who experienced abusive relationship. Another study conducted by Powell, Newgent & Lee (2006) also found that cinema therapy, a form of metaphor, can significantly increase selfesteem of adolescents who experience severe emotional disturbance. This research showed that the increase is permanent, that is known after a week follow-up.…”

The study examined the effect of pesantren (Indonesian Islamic boarding house)-based metaphor on selfesteem of santri (students of pesantren). 11 subjects with low self-esteem participated in the study. Five of them served as participants in the experimental group while the rests participated in the control group. The Self-Esteem Scale (SEC) developed by Rahman (2013) was used to measure their self-esteem. As the study used nonequivalent (pre-test and post-test) control-group design, subjects in the experimental group received pesantren-based metaphor, while who in the control group received no intervention. The Wilcoxon Matchedpairs Signed-ranks Test was applied to compare the scores of the two groups. Results show score differences (Asymp. Sig. = 0,043) between the two, in which the score of the experimental group tended to rise while the control group score was likely to remain. The results are then discussed within the framework of the advantages of pesantren-based metaphor.
