    Comprensión del cambio psicoterapéutico en adolescentes: Voces de pacientes y terapeutas
    (2020) Fernández, O.M.; Fernández, S.; Krause, M.
    Este estudio tuvo como objetivo comprender el proceso de cambio psicoterapéutico desde las perspectivas subjetivas de adolescentes y terapeutas que participaron en una terapia. Método: se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo; la recolección de información se realizó a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas audiograbadas, luego de finalizar la terapia. Participaron 17 díadas terapéuticas (adolescentes: edad promedio 15,8 años; 64,7% género femenino; terapeutas: edad promedio 30,3 años; 55,5 % género femenino), que realizaron sus terapias en contextos naturales y con diferentes enfoques teóricos. Codificadores entrenados analizaron los datos a través de los procedimientos propuestos por la Teoría Fundamentada, codificación abierta y axial, y procesos de reorganizaciones y triangulaciones permanentes. Resultados: se identificaron dos fenómenos comprensivos relacionados con los procesos de cambio psicoterapéutico: (a) El encuentro con “otro” como plataforma segura y sustrato relacional generador del cambio y, (b) El cambio como empoderamiento y desarrollo. Discusión: se examina el rol central que ocupan la relación terapéutica y el logro de las tareas del desarrollo (identidad, autonomía y autodeterminación) en el cambio psicoterapéutico. Además, se reflexiona acerca de las habilidades y acciones de los terapeutas.

    FOUR SUCCESSFUL SHORT-TERM PSYCHODYNAMIC PSYCHOTHERAPIES STUDIED THROUGH GENERIC CHANGE INDICATORS
    (RAFFLES CONNECT PTE LTD, 2009) Echavarri, O.; Gonzalez, A.; Krause, M.; Tomicic, A.; Perez, C.; Dagnino, P.; De la Parra, G.; Valdes, N.; Altimir, C.; Vilches, O.; Strasser, K.; Ramirez, I.; Reyes, L.
    Therapeutic change was studied in four short-term psychodynamic oriented therapies. Micro-changes were analyzed through the hierarchy of Generic Change Indicators (CI) and through the "subjective discomfort", "interpersonal relationships" and "social role" scales of Lamberts' OQ-45.2. The four therapies showed a positive correlation between the evolution of sessions and the hierarchical level of change indicators. Two of these were measured with OQ-45.2, session by session, and showed a significant correlation between progress of sessions and therapeutic effect. In one of these the results indicated that the session evolution effect in "subjective discomfort" decreased significantly when intra session CI was also included. This led to the formulation of an hypothesis regarding the significant role of the CI in therapeutic outcome.

    Understanding the use/non-use of an internet-based intervention complementing standard depression treatment: A qualitative study of user\'s experiences
    (2023) Fernández, O.; Pérez, J.C.; Fernández, S.; Krause, M.; Cáceres, C.; Espinosa-Duque, D.
    Introduction: There is sufficient evidence about the effectiveness of internet-based interventions; however, the users’ level of adoption and utilization remains low, with this phenomenon requiring adequate explanation. Objective: The aim of this qualitative study was to explore the users’ perceptions and experience of a web-based program (ASCENSO), designed to complement (usual) in-person depression treatment. Method: Twelve participants of the ASCENSO program, comprised of adult individuals (M = 44.3, SD = 13.4) of both genders (67% women) undergoing treatment for depression, were interviewed through semi-structured interviews. The data obtained from these interviews were analyzed utilizing a constructivist grounded theory approach. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed by trained coders. A constant comparative analysis of emergent themes was conducted. Results: These show that users employ and appreciate the program when their interaction with it emulates a “humanized relationship,” that is, when the program is proactive in assisting users with their requests and when it responds in a pertinent and individualized manner to their emotional states and needs. Conclusions: Our findings highlight the challenges associated with the development of algorithms capable of attracting different potential users. These should be designed to generate a virtual relationship that emulates human interaction and targets the characteristics of each user, for example, considering the specific phenomenology of their health condition, their present emotional states, and perceived needs. Elements that will vary as mental symptomatology evolve. © The Author(s) 2023.
