Abstract(s)
A presente investigação tem como objetivo estudar o impacto que a Programação Neurolinguística (PNL) tem num conjunto de variáveis psicológicas – Auto-Estima, Florescimento Psicológico e Locus de Controlo. A amostra caracteriza-se por 290 participantes recrutados através de um questionário online, 167 dos quais são indivíduos do sexo feminino (57.6%), e os restantes 123 do sexo masculino (42.4%), com idades compreendidas entre os 16 e os 69 anos (M = 33.7, DP = 10.9). A amostra encontra-se bem distribuída ao nível de participantes que reportam ter tido e não ter tido qualquer contacto com a PNL (45.2% e 54.8%, respetivamente).
Para avaliar as variáveis em estudo, foram aplicadas a Escala de Auto-Estima de Rosenberg (RSES), traduzida e adaptada para a língua portuguesa por Pechorro e colaboradores (2011), a Escala de Florescimento Psicológico (PERMA Profiler), validada para a população portuguesa por Caracol (2015), e a Bateria de Escalas de Expectativas Generalizadas de Controlo (BEEGC-20), adaptada para a população portuguesa por Silva (2010). Foi ainda avaliada uma variável de “Conhecimentos em PNL” operacionalizada através de um instrumento de escolha múltipla de 10 itens, construído originalmente para esta investigação, e que permite avaliar os reais conhecimentos dos participantes quanto aos pressupostos, teoria e prática da ferramenta da PNL.
Os resultados demonstram um impacto positivo do contacto e conhecimentos em PNL com a Auto-Estima, algumas dimensões da variável Florescimento Psicológico, bem como algumas dimensões da variável Locus de Controlo. As implicações práticas dos resultados encontrados, serão discutidas e apresentadas ao longo do presente estudo.
The present investigation aims to study the impact that Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) has on a set of psychological variables - Self-Esteem, Psychological Flourishing and Locus of Control. The sample consists of 290 participants recruited through an online questionnaire, 167 of whom are women (57.6%), and the remaining 123 are men (42,4%), aged between 16 and 69 years old (M = 33.7, SD = 10.9). The sample itself is well distributed at the level of participants who reported having had and never having had any contact with NLP (45.2% and 54.8%, respectively). To assess the variables under study, we applied the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), translated, and adapted to the Portuguese population by Pechorro et al. (2011), the Psychological Flourishing Scale (PERMA Profiler), validated to the Portuguese population by Caracol (2015), and the Battery of Scales of Generalized Expectations of Control (BEEGC–20) adapted to the Portuguese population by Silva (2010). A “NLP Knowledge” variable was also assessed and operationalized through a 10 item multiple-choice instrument, built for this investigation, and which allowed the assessment of the participant’s real knowledge regarding the assumptions, theory and practice of the NLP tool. The results show a positive impact of the contact and knowledge in NLP on Self-Esteem, some dimensions of Psychological Flourishing, as well as some dimensions of the Locus of Control Variable. The practical implications of the results will be presented and discussed throughout the present study.
