SOARES, Adriana Benevides; NAIFF, Luciene Alves Miguez and BRITO, Almir Diego. Social representations of Psychology students on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Psicol. pesq. [online]. 2022, vol.16, n.1, pp.1-22. ISSN 1982-1247. https://doi.org/10.34019/1982-1247.2022.v16.31164.
The study investigated the social representations of Psychology students on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The 196 students indicated three to five words that came to their minds when thinking about CBT. The results were treated on the Evoc Software and distributed in four quadrants in order of expressiveness: 1) behaviors, beliefs and reinforcement; 2) thoughts; 3) emotion, objective, cognition, short-term, scientific and tests; 4) techniques, tasks and changes. The students' social thinking is in line with the basic structure of the theory and the results contribute to the understanding of CBT in Psychology training.
