Abstract(s)
O objectivo deste trabalho visa avaliar e analisar a qualidade do pensamento, isto é, a predominância de um tipo de pensamento mais concreto ou de um tipo de pensamento mais simbólico, em cinco mulheres com diagnóstico de Obesidade Mórbida. Assim, procedeu-se à revisão de literatura, à aplicação do Teste de Rorschach, à elaboração dos protocolos e à análise quantitativa e qualitativa dos mesmos.
As participantes foram cinco mulheres, pacientes das Consultas de Obesidade do Hospital de Santa Maria, com diagnóstico de Obesidade Mórbida, candidatas a cirurgia bariátrica, cuja participação foi totalmente voluntária.
A criatividade foi estudada e avaliada através dos conceitos psicanalíticos, segundo os quais a criatividade implica o acesso e manutenção do simbólico, assim como a relação dos símbolos criados com a vida psíquica do sujeito.
Os resultados revelaram a pobreza do pensamento simbólico e a predominância significativa de um tipo de pensamento mais pobre, mais concreto, segundo o critério dos autores em que nos baseamos, nomeadamente, de Klein, Segal e Bion. Isto, porque os símbolos construídos pelas participantes não lhes ofereciam contenção emocional, afastamento das angústias emergentes que a prova lhe despertava, nem promovia a resolução das problemáticas.
This study aims to evaluate and analyze the quality of thought, that is, if there a predominance of more concrete type of thought or a more symbolic one, in five women diagnosed with morbid obesity. Thus, literature was revised, the Rorschach test was applied, and protocols were prepared and analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The participants were five women, patients of the Obesity Service of Hospital de Santa Maria, diagnosed with morbid obesity and candidates to bariatric surgery, whose participation was entirely voluntary. Creativity was studied and analyzed according to psychoanalytic concepts, which imply creativity involves access and maintenance of the symbolic and the list of symbols created with the subject’s inner psychic life. According to the criteria of our selected authors - Klein, Segal and Bion -, the participants results show the lack of symbolic thought and significant predominance of one type of poorer thought. As the symbols built by the participants did not offer emotional containment, withdrawal from the emerging anguish roused by the trials or help to solve the problems.
