- Imagined and extended contact experiences and adolescent bystanders' behavioral intentions in homophobic bullying episodesPublication . António, Raquel; Guerra, Rita; Cameron, Lindsey; Moleiro, CarlaBystanders' helping interventions in bias‐based bullying are rare, although they have the potential to intervene on behalf of the victim and quickly stop the aggression. Two studies tested, experimentally, the impact of adolescents' imagined (Study 1, N = 113, Mage = 16.17) and extended contact experiences (Study 2, N = 174, Mage = 15.79) on assertive bystanders' behavioral intentions in the context of homophobic bullying, an under‐ researched but highly detrimental behavior that emerges mainly during early adolescence. Potential mediators (empathic concern, social contagion concerns, and masculinity/ femininity threat) were also examined. Results showed that female younger participants revealed more behavioral intentions to help victims of homophobic bullying when asked to imagine an interaction with an outgroup member (Study 1). Younger participants revealed less masculinity/femininity threat in the positive extended contact condition, and female participants revealed less empathic concern in the negative extended contact condition (Study 2). Overall, these findings identify specific conditions (e.g., younger females) where indirect contact interventions (i.e., extended and imagined) are likely to have a stronger impact. Age and sex differences were found to illustrate how adolescents vary in their behavioral intentions, empathic concern, and threat; and also highlight the need to further examine age and sex differences regarding responses to homophobic bullying episodes.

- Que integração em psicoterapia: Um estudo descritivo das práticas de psicoterapeutas PortuguesesPublication . Cravo, André; Moleiro, CarlaA integração em psicoterapia tem sido crescente e estudada em termos da sua prevalência em Portugal. Contudo, pouco se sabe acerca do tipo e forma de integração realizada pelos psicoterapeutas portugueses. O presente estudo procurou explorar e descrever a forma como os psicoterapeutas integram intervenções de diversos modelos psicoterapêuticos. O seu objectivo geral foi investigar se a integração era feita de forma sistemática, responsiva às características dos pacientes, e baseada na evidência empírica. Participaram no estudo 65 psicoterapeutas (78% do sexo feminino, idade média de 32 anos), com experiência clínica variada (0.5-20 anos) e distintas orientações teóricas. Os participantes responderam a um questionário, desenvolvido a partir do Modelo de Selecção Sistemática, utilizando uma metodologia quantitativa e qualitativa. Os resultados demonstraram que as formas de integração dos psicoterapeutas portugueses são muito diversas, variando entre a utilização sistemática de princípios empíricos e o desenvolvimento de modelos únicos. Emergiram dois grupos de psicoterapeutas principais no que diz respeito à orientação teórica: (1) os que se identificam como dinâmicos e psicanalíticos, que relatam identificar-se pouco com outros modelos teóricos (e vice-versa) e (2) os que se identificam como cognitivos, comportamentais, humanistas e sistémicos, que reportam identificar-se mais com modelos dentro deste grupo. Os psicoterapeutas que se identificaram mais com as orientações teóricas humanista e integrativa tenderam a referir ser mais responsivos a características do paciente na escolha de intervenções. São discutidas implicações para a prática e a formação de psicoterapeutas em Portugal
