Abstract(s)
O Teatro Playback (TP) é uma forma de teatro de improviso onde um grupo de
espetadores relatam narrativas pessoais que são seguidas de uma representação por uma equipa
de atores e músicos. Apesar de a literatura mostrar os efeitos das artes criativas na melhoria de
diversas variáveis associadas ao bem-estar, e existindo múltiplas evidências de que o TP
também é um fator maximizador deste estado pleno, encontrou-se uma certa carência de estudos
quantitativos que corroborem esta ligação. A presente investigação pretende adicionar à
literatura evidências quantitativas da relação entre o TP, o bem-estar mental e a empatia. A base
deste estudo foi um ensaio controlado aleatório, com pré-teste e pós-teste, numa intervenção de
12 sessões, seguido de outras duas intervenções quasi-experimentais. A amostra consistiu na
junção de três grupos em diferentes estudos de TP, sendo analisado um grupo que é a junção
dos 3 estudos (3E) e outro que é somente a junção do estudo 1 e 3 (2E). A amostra no grupo 3E
consiste em 74 participantes no grupo de controlo e 48 no grupo experimental. Já no grupo 2E,
a amostra consiste em 37 participantes no grupo de controlo e 32 no grupo experimental. Foi
verificado uma melhoria significativa no grupo experimental sobre o bem-estar mental e na
subescala de empatia cognitiva em ambos os grupos (3E e 2E), não se verificando efeitos
estatisticamente significativos na empatia e na subescala empatia afetiva. Os resultados
encontrados, limitações no presente estudo e possíveis investigações futuras são discutidas.
ABSTRACT: Playback Theatre (PT) is a form of improvisational theater where a group of spectators recount personal narratives that are followed by a representation by a team of actors and musicians. Although the literature has shown to improve variables associated with wellbeing, and with multiple evidence that PT is also a maximizing factor to this full state, there is still a lack of quantitative studies that support this connection. The present investigation intends to add to the quantitative evidence in relation to PT and its effect on mental well-being and empathy. The design started with a randomized controlled trial, with pre-test and post-test, in a 12-session intervention, followed by two other quasi-experimental interventions. The sample consisted of the junction of 3 groups in different PT studies, divided in a group that is the junction of the 3 studies (3E) and another that is only the junction of study 1 and 3 (2E). The sample in group 3E consists of 74 participants in the control group and 48 in the experimental group. In the 2E group, the sample consists of 37 participants in the control group and 32 in the experimental group. There was a significant improvement in the experimental group on mental well-being and on the cognitive empathy subscale in both groups (3E and 2E), while no statistically significant effects were shown on empathy and on the affective empathy subscale. The results and limitations of our study and possible future investigations are discussed.
