Resumo: ObjectiveThis study was designed to compare the effectiveness of Sandplay Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in the reduction of clinical/borderline symptoms in children and adolescents.MethodsThe participants were 21 victims of domestic violence with clinical or borderline scores on the Child Behavior Checklist and Young Self Report. They were also tested with Wechsler Abbreviated Intelligence Scale (T0) and designed by random to treatment and control groups. They were tested with the same instruments at T1 (after 20 sessions/ 20 weeks) and T2 (after 6 months).ResultsFor the children, there were no changes across the groups, but a significant improvement in internalizing behavior problems in the sandplay group and in externalizing and total behavior problems in the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy group. For the adolescents, there was a significant improvement in externalizing behavioral problems in the sandplay group and in the total behavior problems for the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy group.ConclusionThe results of this research do not allow to conclude that one technique is better than another since we did not have a consistent significative difference across the groups. These results may be due to the different approaches of the techniques. While Sandplay Therapy provides a free and protected space to allow the participants to express their feelings through images and histories, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy follows a program that focuses more on promoting behavior adaption to outside world. The application of this research design with a large population and with more sessions will allow to observe the consistence of these findings, providing a more solid ground to choose which technique would be more efficient for each specific case.

Os participantes foram também testados com a escala abreviada de inteligência Wechsler (T0) e designados randomicamente para os grupos de tratamento e controle. Os participantes foram testados novamente em T1 (20 sessões/20 semanas) e em T2 (6 meses).ResultadosPara as crianças, não houve mudança entre os grupos, mas uma melhora nos problemas internalizantes no grupo de sandplay e nos problemas externalizantes e total de problemas no grupo de terapia cognitiva comportamental. Para os adolescentes, houve uma melhora significativa nos problemas externalizantes no grupo de sandplay e no total de problemas no grupo de terapia cognitiva comportamental.ConclusãoOs resultados desta pesquisa não permitem concluir que uma técnica é melhor que outra, pois não tivemos uma diferença significativa consistente entre os grupos. Esses resultados podem ser devidos às diferentes abordagens das técnicas. Enquanto a Sandplay Therapy oferece um espaço livre e protegido para permitir que os participantes expressem seus sentimentos por meio de imagens e histórias, a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy segue um programa que se concentra mais em promover a adaptação do comportamento ao mundo exterior. A aplicação deste desenho de pesquisa a uma grande população e com mais sessões permitirá observar a consistência destes resultados, proporcionando terreno sólido para escolher qual técnica seria mais eficiente para cada caso específico.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-10-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10070Psychological Studies; Vol. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 40 (2023): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPengporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10070/7434https://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/10070/7957Copyright (c) 2023 Reinalda Melo da MATTA, Denise Gimenez RAMOShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMATTA, Reinalda Melo da RAMOS, Denise Gimenez2024-04-23T10:36:29Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/10070Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-23T10:36:29Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
