TOLOI, Maria Dolores Cunha  and  SOUZA, Rosane Mantilla de. Thematic sociodrama: a research procedure. Rev. bras. psicodrama [online]. 2015, vol.23, n.1, pp. 14-22. ISSN 0104-5393.

The aim of this paper is to present Thematic Sociodrama as a research procedure. While investigating how adolescents understand and cope with marital conflicts in the context of marriage and separation, Thematic Sociodrama has proved to be an appropriate instrument in the examination of themes emerging during social-clinical research/intervention. It proved to be helpful in protecting the vulnerability of participants as well as in the challenge of creating a procedure in which all the participants are involved in the co-construction of scientific knowledge. Through the use of creative action during dramatization, participants could express how their different views of the family have been constructed and how family roles can be understood through these.
