“…The ARKS is part of a wider research project of Istituto di Gestalt HCC Italy that aims to study the process of change in psychotherapy considering the flow of reciprocity between therapist and client, both in terms of time sequence and reciprocal intentional movements (cfr. Molinari & Cavaleri, 2015; Maggio, 2016; Sampognaro, 2020; Spagnuolo Lobb, 2017a, 2017b, 2018, 2020). The present research aimed to validate the ARKS in order to use it for training, research, and clinical purposes; to measure the development of the intuitive capacity of psychotherapists in long-term (4-year) programs (see Alcaro et al, 2020); to provide validated feedback on therapeutic situations; to research the development of ARK in different psychotherapy modalities; and to research ARK with different populations of patients or with different populations of psychotherapists.…”

“…Twenty-eight questions were formulated ad hoc (14 positive and 14 negative) to evaluate the concept of resonance, following studies and reflections conducted with Gestalt psychotherapists adequately trained on the subject (Borino, 2013; Conte & Tosi, 2016; Macaluso, 2020a, 2020b; Maggio, 2016; Mione, 2019; Rubino & Spagnuolo Lobb, 2015; Sampognaro, 2020; Spagnuolo Lobb, 2012, 2013, 2018, 2019).…”

This study has explored the construct of aesthetic relational knowledge (ARK) as the intuitive experience of the therapist that emerges from the phenomenological field created in a meeting between therapist and client. A scale to measure this construct has been built and validated. The concept of ARK has been examined in literature and a questionnaire has been developed, composed of 58 items. A sample of 94 Italian Gestalt psychotherapists (Mage = 40.19, SD = 8.15) has completed an online protocol containing the Basic Empathy Scale, the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness, and a series of questions created ad hoc for the assessment of resonance. Two exploratory two- and three-latent-factor analyses were conducted to identify the variables that best explain ARK. The results have shown that ARK is described by three factors: empathy, resonance, and bodily awareness. They show the best saturation values and the best comparison with the theoretical reference model. Cronbach’s alpha is .844. The ARK can be defined as a three-dimensional construct that supports the positive use of counter-transferential feelings in terms of aesthetic knowledge of the phenomenological field of the therapeutic situation. The ARK can be measured by the Aesthetic Relational Knowledge Scale, suitable for training purposes, supervision, and research.
