Teste de fotografias de modos de esquemas: uma análise de juízes

Abstract

This exploratory research aimed to build and establish the construct validity of the “Scheme Mode Photo Test” based on the judges' test. The test consists of 22 photographs, 11 photographs with a female model and 11 photographs with a female model representing scenes capable of evoking Scheme Modes (MEs), according to Scheme Cognitive Therapy. The instructions and procedures for applying the test were carried out and the photographs (test stimuli) were subjected to a test by judges with 9 participants who were experts in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, with training and experience in Schema Therapy, from both sexes to see if the scenes would actually evoke the ways in which they were designed. The entire procedure of proof of roots was carried out through google docs and the judge's task was to assess whether the photographs, presented in pairs (male and female model simultaneously) would evoke a main scheme mode, pre-established by the researchers, in addition to to indicate other layout modes that could be activated by the same scene. Of the 11 scheme modes pre-established by the researchers as evocable predominantly by photographs, 9 modes obtained 100% agreement from the judges, except for the hypercompensating mode and the punitive parent mode, which obtained 88.9% agreement, respectively. All the photographs evoked other modes, in addition to those pre-established by the researchers. The data in general indicate that the Scheme Modes Photo Test is a reliable tool in activating schema modes.
