RESUMO

Resumo O objetivo principal deste estudo foi examinar as relações entre a orientação epistêmica (i.e., intuitiva, empiricista e racionalista), o estilo pessoal e as estratégias de regulação emocional de psicoterapeutas. Participaram do estudo 674 psicoterapeutas de diferentes abordagens teóricas, os quais responderam a um questionário online contendo medidas de orientação epistêmica, estilo pessoal e estratégias de regulação emocional. Os terapeutas predominantemente intuitivos apresentaram uma maior tendência à abertura da atenção e à proximidade emocional quando comparados aos terapeutas predominantemente empiricistas ou racionalistas. Além disso, relataram usar mais estratégias para o aumento dos efeitos das emoções positivas do que os racionalistas. Discutem-se implicações para a formação, prática e bem-estar pessoal do psicoterapeuta.Abstract The main objective of this study was to examine the relations among psychotherapists’ epistemic orientation (i.e., intuitive, empiricist, and rationalist), personal style and emotion regulation strategies. Participants in the study were 674 psychotherapists of different theoretical approaches, who completed an online questionnaire containing measures of epistemic orientation, personal style, and emotion regulation strategies. Psychotherapists profiled as predominantly intuitive tended towards broader attention and greater emotional closeness as compared to those profiled as predominantly rationalist or empiricist. Furthermore, they also reported using more strategies for increasing the effects of positive emotions than rationalists. Implications for training, practice and therapist well-being are discussed.
