Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
Problema: Ainda que exista um aumento recente na investigação em relação aos estudos acerca do uso da prática deliberada em psicoterapia, é percetível uma lacuna existente na literatura sobre a aplicação desta prática pedagógica na formação universitária. Objetivo: Investigar o impacto da prática deliberada em estudantes de psicologia, tendo por base os fatores promotores de diferenças entre a prática deliberada e ensino tradicional (leitura recomendada e aulas expositivas) ao nível do desenvolvimento de competências empáticas. Método: Avaliar a variável empatia ao longo de três momentos em dois grupos distintos, com uma amostra total de quinze estudantes de psicologia (seis no grupo de controlo e nove no de prática deliberada). Para recolha de dados, o instrumento utilizado foi a escala Measure Expressed Empathy (MEE). Os dados foram analisados através de procedimentos estatísticos com recurso ao programa Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Resultados: Os resultados sugerem uma diferença entre os dois grupos, sendo que o grupo da prática deliberada apresenta valores muito superiores aos do grupo de controlo. Conclusões: Os dados apontam no sentido de que as tarefas de treino propostas aos participantes desempenharam um papel crucial no processo de identificação de áreas onde o respetivo desempenho revelara falhas, contribuindo assim para uma melhoria acentuada do desempenho.

Objective: To investigate the impact of deliberate practice on psychology students, based on factors that promote differences between deliberate practice and traditional teaching (recommended reading and lectures) on the development of empathic skills. Method: Evaluate the empathy variable over three moments in two distinct groups, with a total sample of fifteen psychology students (six in the control group and nine in the deliberate practice group). For data collection, the instrument used was the Measure Expressed Empathy (MEE) scale. Data were analyzed using statistical procedures using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) program. Results: The results suggest a difference between the two groups, with the deliberate practice group showing much higher values than the control group. Conclusions: The data point to the fact that the training tasks proposed to the participants played a crucial role in the process of identifying areas where their performance had revealed failures, thus contributing to a marked improvement in performance.
