The benefits of positive emotionsOs benefícios das emoções positivasPositive emotions constitute an important aspect of daily life experience. The existing tradition of experimental research about its effects has att racted litt le att ention.

The present article turns to this source to review the referred tradition in order to clarify what the benefits of positive emotion are which are documented in it.

Existe uma tradição de pesquisa experimental acerca dos seus efeitos pouco explorada pelos clínicos. Recentemente, emergiram algumas referências a essa tradição para sustentar a posição mais central acordada às emoções positivas em novos modelos da psicoterapia. No presente artigo, voltamos para a fonte e revisamos a referida tradição para esclarecer quais são os benefícios das emoções positivas nela evidenciadas. Os trabalhos revisados mostram que as emoções positivas contribuem de diversas formas para a regulação de emoções; ajudam a desfazer o impacto tóxico do estresse sobre processos fisiológicos; ampliam o leque de ação e pensamento, e a abertura às experiências; melhoram estratégias de coping; e favorecem a qualidade de relacionamentos. Em longo prazo, esses processos contribuem para a construção de recursos pessoais e sociais fortes, favorecendo a saúde e a resiliência.Palavras-chave: emoção positiva, pesquisa sobre emoções, psicologia positiva.Unisinos2013-03-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2013.61.0610.4013/ctc.2013.61.06Contextos Clínicos; v. 6 n. 1 (2013): Jan-Jul; 50-571983-3482reponame:Contextos Clínicosinstname:Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)instacron:Unisinosporhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/article/view/ctc.2013.61.06/1538Silvestre, Rafaela Luiza SilvaVandenberghe, Lucinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2013-08-07T20:37:46Zoai:ojs2.revistas.unisinos.br:article/3725Revistahttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicosPUBhttps://revistas.unisinos.br/index.php/contextosclinicos/oaidfalcke@unisinos.br||periodicos@unisinos.br1983-34821983-3482opendoar:2013-08-07T20:37:46Contextos Clínicos - Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos (UNISINOS)false |
