ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of applying narrative therapy theory into game on improving the quality of bowel preparation in children, and to provide a basis for selecting nursing intervention methods before bowel preparation.Methods:This study was a quasi experimental study. Totally 62 children who took polyethylene glycol electrolyte dispersion for bowel preparation in Gansu Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January to December 2021 were included in this retrospective study. They were divided into control group with 28 cases and experimental group with 34 cases according to random number table method. The control group was given conventional bowel preparation and medication guidance, and the experimental group was given the intervention during bowel preparation by applying narrative therapy theory implanted games. The bowel preparation adequacy rate, complete medication taking rate and parental satisfaction of the two groups were observed and compared.Results:The bowel preparation adequacy rate and complete medication taking rate in the experimental group were 94.12% (32/34) and 52.94% (18/34), respectively, which were higher than 46.43% (13/28) and 10.71% (3/28) in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 15.23, 10.41, both P<0.01). According to the average BBPS score, the experimental group had better intestinal cleanliness compared to the control group (7.65 ± 1.07 vs 6.07 ± 1.41, t = -4.87, P<0.01), the difference was statistically significant. 97.06% (33/34) of the parents in the experimental group expressed satisfaction, which was higher than 64.29% (18/28) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 12.74, P<0.05). Conclusions:By applying the narrative therapy theory implanted games, the complete taking of high-dose bowel cleasing agent can be promoted and the quality of bowel preparation can be improved, which is worth suggesting as a nursing intervention method for bowel preparation.
ABSTRACT
To study the effect and influencing factors of life tree narrative therapy on alleviating stigma in long-term hospitalized patients with chronic stable schizophrenia, and focus on its intervention targets for long-term hospitalization patients with chronic stable schizophrenia. The group therapy plan was set up with life tree narrative therapy, 12 patients were selected to receive the therapy. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted before and after the therapy of life tree narrative therapy, and grounded theory was used to analyze the interview data. There were 5 therapeutic effects of life tree narrative therapy, including improvement of support system, reduction of stigma, improvement of interpersonal relationship, self-confidence, and the enthusiasm for participating in group therapy. And four core categories of influencing factors of life tree group therapy were summarized, which were group process, patients, leaders and other influencing factors. The biggest gain of life tree group therapy for patients is the improvement of the support system, which can promote patients to adjust their inpatient mentality and change their negative emotions. During the process of therapy, patient’s expectations of participating in the group have changed, and serious living and living in the moment have become the main goal at present, which is an additional benefit of group therapy.
ABSTRACT
La terapia narrativa surge como una propuesta de intervención, debido a que este modelo permite que las personas puedan generar un proceso donde se desarrolle de manera integral lo que han padecido, y, de esa manera, poder resignificarlo; consiguientemente, cada paciente puede, así, superar la experiencia traumática (Ihl y Diaz, 2021). Método: Este trabajo de integración final de diseño teórico de revisión bibliográfica se propuso analizar la posible eficacia de la terapia narrativa como intervención clínica con jóvenes que han sido víctimas del abuso sexual infantil. Síntesis y conclusiones: La terapia narrativa propone un espacio respetuoso, flexible y de contención; se establece un entorno en el que el paciente tiene la oportunidad de contar su experiencia traumática, sin estar obligado a relatarla. Es decir, este abordaje no se enfoca en la exposición del trauma, ni exige que la persona relate la situación de abuso en un momento específico; la terapia narrativa propone trabajar con los efectos y las consecuencias del trauma AU
Narrative therapy emerges as an intervention proposal because this model allows people to generate a process where what they have suffered is developed in an integral way, and, in this way, to resignify it; consequently, each patient can thus overcome the traumatic experience (Ihl & Diaz, 2021). Method: This work offinal integration of theoretical design of bibliographic review was proposed to analyze the possible effectiveness of narrative therapy as a clinical intervention with young people who have been victims of child sexual abuse. Synthesis and conclusions: Narrative therapy proposes a respectful, flexible, and supportive space; an environment is established in which the patient has the opportunity to recount his traumatic experience, without being obliged to recount it. In other words, this approach does not focus on the exposure of the trauma, nor does it require the person to report the situation of abuse at a specific time; Narrative therapy proposes working with the effects and consequences of trauma AU

RESUMEN Este artículo contribuye a las investigaciones y propuestas de intervención cualitativas para mejorar la convivencia y fomentar la paz a través de una metodología emergente que muestra la terapia narrativa. Se partió de un diagnóstico realizado en una escuela primaria de la ciudad de Guadalajara (Jalisco) que cuenta con 340 alumnos, entre 6 y 12 años, donde se evidencia la violencia en dicho plantel, detectada mediante estadística simple, narrativas y dibujos. Efectuamos una propuesta de intervención a partir de un modelo que sugiere la terapia narrativa, denominado "el árbol de la vida", que permitió a niñas y niños tomar un sentido de pertenencia al convivir en paz, manifestando experiencias pedagógicas que promuevan el concepto de comunidad educativa incluyente con valores humanos y esperanzadora, tan necesaria en estos tiempos. El objetivo de esta investigación fue dar cuenta de que educar para la paz y la convivencia es una construcción que se realiza en nuestra vida cotidiana y que la escuela es un espacio ideal para tomar conciencia cultivar y crear desde temprana edad una sociedad constructora de culturas de paz.
ABSTRACT This article supports qualitative research and intervention proposals to improve coexistence and promote peace through an emerging methodology that shows narrative therapy. It was based on a diagnosis made in a primary school in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco, which has 340 students, between 6 and 12 years old, where violence is evidenced in said campus, detected through simple statistics, narratives and drawings. We made an intervention proposal based on a model that suggests narrative therapy called "the tree of life" that allowed girls and boys to take a sense of belonging by living together in peace, manifesting pedagogical experiences that promote the concept of an inclusive educational community with human and hopeful values, so necessary in these times. The objective of this research was to realize that educating for peace and coexistence is a construction that takes place in our daily lives and that the school is an ideal space, to become aware of cultivating and creating from an early age, a construction society of cultures of peace.

Objective:To investigate the effect of peer support-based narrative therapy on postoperative self-image and stigma of patients with head and neck cancer, to provide reference for clinical nursing.Methods:A total of 78 head and neck cancer patients from August 2018 to August 2020 in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were divided into experimental group and control group by random digits table method, each group were 39 cases. The control group was given conventional nursing, while the experimental group implemented support-based narrative therapy on the basis of routine nursing. The intervention time was 4 weeks. The self-image and stigma of the two groups before and after intervention were assessed by Body Image Scale (BIS) and Social Impact Scale (SIS), respectively.Results:Finally, 37 cases were included in the experimental group and 38 cases in the control group. There was no significant difference in BIS, SIS dimension scores and total scores between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05). After intervention, the emotional demension scores, behavior dimension scores, cognitive dimension scores and total scores in BIS were 4.41 ± 1.04, 1.95 ± 0.51, 3.81 ± 0.63 and 10.16 ± 2.05 in the experimental group, significantly lower than in the control group 5.08 ± 1.08, 2.82 ± 0.60, 5.42 ± 0.76 and 13.32 ± 1.93, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.76-6.86, all P<0.01); the social exclusion scores, internal shame scores, social isolation scores and total stigma scores in SIS were 17.57 ± 2.67, 9.08 ± 1.55, 12.14 ± 3.73 and 46.14 ± 4.95 in the experimental group, significantly lower than in the control group 19.18 ± 3.70, 10.68 ± 1.61, 14.18 ± 3.83 and 51.68 ± 6.09, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.16-4.38, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Peer support-based narrative therapy can effectively alleviate the postoperative self-image problems and stigma of patients with head and neck cancer, which is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Foi investigado, nesse artigo, a forma com que a terapia narrativa, a partir da construção de histórias alternativas, pode estimular a plasticidade neuronal, promovendo mudanças psicológicas e comportamentais. Realizou-se uma revisão bibliográfica para analisar as contribuições teóricas e práticas da relação entre histórias alternativas e a neuroplasticidade. Foi observado que esta interface tem sido pouco estudada enquanto tema unificado. Na terapia narrativa o terapeuta ajuda o paciente a olhar detalhes até então não percebidos de sua história, trazendo novos estímulos e permitindo ao paciente recontar repetidas vezes sua própria história alternativa. Isso contribui para uma ressignificação de sua história e o desenvolvimento de novos pensamentos e sentimentos, que resultarão em novos comportamentos. A vivência desse processo, ativa a neuroplasticidade do cérebro e cria novas conexões neuronais, gerando mudanças saudáveis e funcionais na vida do paciente.
This work investigates how narrative therapy can stimulate neuroplasticity, with basis on the construction of alternative histories, thus promoting psychological and behavioral changes. A literature review was carried out to analyze the contribution, theoretical and practical, arising from the relationship between neuroplasticity and alternative histories. It was noticed that this interface has been little studied as a unified theme. In narrative therapy, the therapist helps the patient to look at details of his/her history so far unnoticed, bringing new stimuli and allowing the patient to recall his/her alternative history, over and over again. This contributes to a resignification of his/her history and the development of new thoughts and feelings, which will result in behavioral changes. The experience of the process of creating and recalling such alternative history, activates brains neuroplasticity, establishing new neural connections and contributing to healthy and functional changes in the patient's life.

ABSTRACT
@#Depression is a complex disabling condition that is common in primary care. Mr. X was previously diagnosed with depression but had defaulted treatment. It was through an extended consultation that we could unmask the diagnosis and initiate the therapeutic process. ObjectivesTo use the model of an extended consultation to both diagnose depression and to formulate the psycho-social factors that predispose, precipitate and perpetuate the depression as well as the positive factors that ameliorate it (4 Ps). MethodsAn example of an extended consultation with Mr. X. was videotaped with his permission. Excerpts from the video transcript are reproduced to demonstrate the 4 Ps formulation and how the pattern approach of narrative therapy was employed to help Mr. X. ResultsMr. X. gained insight into his condition. He was hence agreeable to initiate anti-depressant medication and continued to follow up for his depression.ConclusionThe extended consultation can be used to uncover therapeutic opportunities when engaging patients with depression, and to formulate the 4 Ps in order to complement pharmacotherapy for holistic management.

O modelo narrativo em psicopatologia e psicoterapia, com dinamismo crescente desde a proposta inicial de White e Epston (1990), afirma-se como crítica "discursiva" não somente das categorias de diagnóstico psicopatológico, mas também da assimetria cognitiva e prática na relação psicoterapêutica. Neste artigo, examinamos os fundamentos epistemológicos desse modelo, recorrendo a Michel Foucault para examinar os processos simbólicos de criação narrativa da subjetividade.
The narrative model in psychopathology and psychotherapy, increasing dynamic since the initial proposal of White and Epston (1990), reaffirms itself as a "discursive" critique of psychopathological diagnosis categories, as well as of cognitive and practical asymmetry within the psychotherapeutical relationship. In this paper, we examine the epistemological foundations of this model, turning to Michel Foucault to examine the symbolic processes inherent to the narrative creation of subjectivity.

ABSTRACT
Objetivo Comprender la forma como se configura narrativa y conversacionalmente la experiencia de hipertensión arterial en la relación que establecen paciente, familia, médicos, e investigadores interventores y su reconfiguración en contextos de ayuda que faciliten la emergencia de relatos generadores de bienestar. Metodología Investigación cualitativa, con diseño narrativo-conversacional, reflexivo y contextual. Participaron un paciente con diagnóstico de hipertensión arterial, su familia, una psicóloga y dos médicos. Los métodos de construcción de la información fueron: encuentros conversacionales dialógicos y revisión de literatura. Para la interpretación de los resultados se utilizaron los análisis narrativo y conversacional. Resultados En la construcción de la experiencia de hipertensión arterial no se tienen en cuenta aspectos importantes como: la solicitud de escucha, la demanda de vinculación afectiva, la vivencia de enfermedad y en este caso la vejez, en relación con la vida cotidiana. En este contexto, se configuran formas de relación que facilitan que los acontecimientos asociados a la enfermedad sean vividos desde el malestar o sufrimiento. La conversación generativa con todos los actores, posibilita la construcción de espacios dialógicos-reflexivos que brindan la oportunidad de reconfigurar las relaciones y la experiencia. Conclusiones La construcción de contextos de ayuda en los que es posible hablar y escuchar acerca de los aspectos que evitan las familias y que no escuchan los médicos, facilita la reconfiguración de la experiencia de enfermedad.(AU)
Objective To understand how the narrative and conversational experience of arterial hypertension is configured in the relationships established among patients, family members, physicians and researchers-auditors, placing the illness in a care context to facilitate the dissemination of wellbeing narratives. Method Qualitative research with reflective and contextual conversational-narrative design, which involveda patient diagnosed with hypertension, his family and two doctors. The methods of constructing information was semi structured interviews, reflective observation and literature review. The systematization of information was carried out using frameworks designed for that purpose. For the interpretation of results, narrative and conversational analyses were used. Results In the process of constructing the experience of hypertension by family members or the physician, important aspects are not taken into account such as: the listening request, a demand for bonding, the experience of illness and in this case, the daily experience of old age. In this context, these kinds of relationships can lead to discomfort and suffering in the patient's experience of the illness. The conversation generated by all stakeholders enables the construction of dialogic-reflexive spaces that provide an opportunity to reshape relationships and experience of illness Conclusions The construction of contexts of care where one can talk and hear about issues without families and doctors facilitates the reconfiguration of the experience of illness, allowing for the inclusion of family and physicians in the generation of conversational-narrative positions. This implies personal and collective agency in order to mobilize and organize the resources they have, consistent with the patient's age and diagnosis.(AU)

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: Clinical symptoms and related psychological problems in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are associated with low self-control and problematic interpersonal relationship between family members. A therapeutic narrative treatment based on "Treating Huckleberry Finn" by David Nylund was reported to be effective in reduction of individual or family conflicts. We hypothesized that therapeutic narrative treatment would improve self-control and parent-child relational problems. METHODS: Sixteen children who were diagnosed as ADHD participated in the current study. They were classified according to two groups, narrative treatment group and medication treatment group. The narrative treatment group (NTG) was asked to participate in 6 weeks combined therapy of medication and 11 sessions of narrative therapeutic treatment. The medication group (MG) was asked to participate in 6 weeks combined therapy of medication and education for behavior controls in ADHD children. RESULTS: During the 6-week treatment period, the clinical symptoms in NTG improved at a trend level, compared to MG [F(1,16)=4.32, p=0.054]. During the 6-week treatment period, the sub-scale of respecting for children in parent-child interaction scores [F(1,16)=8.65, p=0.010] and self-control scores [F(1.16)=3.78, p<0.01] in NTG improved significantly, compared to MG. CONCLUSION: Based on the current results, therapeutic narrative treatment can be a complementary trial for improving self-control and parent-child interaction in children with ADHD.

ABSTRACT
La psicología positiva estudia el funcionamiento óptimo de las personas, utiliza el método científico para investigar las experiencias, rasgos e instituciones positivas. Las terapias "constructivas", que incluyen la terapia centrada en soluciones, la narrativa y la colaborativa, se centran en construir sobre las excepciones a los problemas, indagan sobre las fortalezas y recursos de los clientes y parten de la base de que las personas quieren tener buenas relaciones y vidas plenas. Este artículo plantea por qué y cómo, a pesar de provenir de tradiciones intelectuales diferentes, la psicología positiva y las terapias constructivas pueden integrarse y enriquecerse mutuamente en la práctica terapéutica.
Positive psychology studies people's optimal functioning. It uses the scientific method to research positive experiences, traits and institutions. "Constructive therapies" include solution focused, narrative and collaborative therapies. These approaches focus on building upon exceptions to problems, inquire about clients' strengths and resources and are based on the premise that people want to have good relationships and full lives. This article discusses why and how positive psychology and constructive therapies, despite coming from different intellectual traditions, can enrich each other and be integrated in clinical work.

ABSTRACT
Considerando a escassez de estudos sobre o uso de cartas terapêuticas na literatura nacional, este artigo busca promover o debate sobre as suas potencialidades. Assim, apresentamos as cartas terapêuticas como um recurso para a prática clínica, sendo entendidas, ao mesmo tempo, como uma forma de documentação e de intervenção terapêutica. A partir de uma revisão da literatura, contextualizamos o desenvolvimento das cartas terapêuticas na clínica, explicitando sua história, usos e funções. Seguindo uma perspectiva narrativa, descrevemos as definições, tipos, princípios gerais e recomendações práticas para a redação de cartas pelos terapeutas. Finalizando, enfatizamos a importância de uma prática epistemologicamente orientada e a necessidade de uma análise das implicações do uso das cartas no contexto brasileiro.
Considering the scarcity of studies about the use of therapeutic letters in the national literature, this article seeks to promote the debate on its potential. Thus, we present the therapeutic letters as a resource for clinical practice, which is understood, at the same time, as a form of documentation and a therapeutic intervention. From a review of the literature, we contextualize the development of the therapeutic letter in clinical settings, explaining its history, uses and functions. Based on a narrative perspective, we describe the definitions, types, general principles and practical recommendations for the letter-writing by therapists. Finally, we emphasize the importance of an epistemologically oriented practice, and the need for an analysis of the implications of the use of letters in the Brazilian context.
