ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the influence of psychological education on the resourcefulness of perioperative breast cancer patients. Methods Two hundred breast cancer patients from a first-class hospital in Fujian province were randomly assigned to the control group, in which routine care was done, and an intervention group, in which psychological education curriculum was employed at three stages on the basis of routine care. The resourcefulness scale was used in both two groups before and after the intervention to evaluate the score of individual and social resourcefulness and the total score of resourcefulness in these two groups. Results As to the control group, the score on individual resourcefulness and the total score on resourcefulness before and after the intervention had no significant differences (P>0.05), but the difference in the social resourcefulness scores before and after the intervention was statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences in the scores on the individual resourcefulness, social resourcefulness and the total score on resourcefulness in the intervention group before and after the intervention were all statistically different (P<0.001). What′s more, the scores of individual resourcefulness, social resourcefulness and the total score of resourcefulness between these two groups after the intervention were statistically different (P<0.001) as well. The scores of the intervention group were significantly higher than those of the control one. Conclusion The psychological education can significantly improve the resourcefulness level of perioperative breast cancer patients, which can help individuals to manage stress effectively.
ABSTRACT
Pretende-se apresentar e discutir uma experiência docente desenvolvida na disciplina Psicologia Institucional e Comunitária do curso de Psicologia, abordando alguns percalços vivenciados no processo de formação de graduandos. Utilizou-se o arcabouço teórico da Psicologia Social, enfatizando uma perspectiva crítica e a dimensão política dos fenômenos sociais. Esta atividade buscou desenvolver com os alunos uma perspectiva crítica acerca dos fenômenos sociais e do campo de atuação dos Psicólogos a partir de uma experiência de campo. Propõe-se uma crítica pedagógica no ensino da Psicologia Social, a partir de uma atividade concreta, através da qual são explorados alguns dilemas vivenciados pelos professores de ensino superior. Argumenta-se que a Psicologia Social é uma disciplina estratégica na formação de Psicólogos.
We intend to present and discuss a teaching experience as developed in the discipline of the Institutional and Community Psychology at the Psychology course, including some setbacks based on the experience of the process of training graduate students. We used the theoretical framework of social psychology, emphasizing a critical perspective and the political dimension of social phenomena. The aim of such activity is to develop in students a critical perspective on social phenomena and on the field of Psychologists from a field experiment. We propose a critical pedagogy on the teaching of social psychology as a concrete activity, which is operated by some dilemmas experienced by higher education teachers. It is stated that Social Psychology is a strategic discipline in the training of psychologists.
