Abstract

Abstract Introduction This study developed Brazilian psychodynamic psychotherapy (PDT) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) prototypes for children with internalizing disorders (ID) and externalizing disorders (ED). Method Eighteen Brazilian experts in PDT (n = 9) and CBT (n = 9) rated the 100 items of the Child Psychotherapy Q-Set (CPQ) describing a hypothetical typical session based on their respective theoretical backgrounds for children with ID. They then rated the same items describing a hypothetical typical session for children with ED. A Q-type factor analysis with varimax rotation was performed. Results Expert correlations were high within each theoretical approach and each diagnostic category. The factor analysis identified three independent factors. CBT ratings concentrated on one factor, while PDT ratings loaded onto one factor describing treatment of children with ID and another factor describing treatment of children with ED. Conclusion The sole CBT prototype reflected a general conceptualization of this approach and was undifferentiated regarding treatment of children with ID and ED. The PDT prototype for children with ID provided evidence of a process focused on interpretation, while the PDT prototype for children with ED characterized a supportive process with attention to the therapeutic relationship. This infers greater variation in the PDT setting for children with different conditions.

Resumo

Resumo Introdução Este estudo desenvolveu protótipos brasileiros de psicoterapia psicodinâmica (PP) e terapia cognitivo-comportamental (TCC) para crianças com transtornos internalizantes (TI) e externalizantes (TE). Método Dezoito experts brasileiros em PP (n = 9) e TCC (n = 9) classificaram os 100 itens do Child Psychotherapy Q-Set (CPQ) descrevendo uma sessão hipotética típica de acordo com suas respectivas abordagens teóricas para crianças com TI. Depois, eles classificaram os mesmos itens descrevendo uma sessão hipotética típica para crianças com TE. Foi realizada uma análise fatorial do tipo Q com rotação varimax. Resultados As correlações dos experts foram altas, considerando ambas as abordagens teóricas e as duas categorias diagnósticas. A análise fatorial gerou três fatores independentes. As avaliações da TCC concentraram-se em um fator, enquanto as avaliações da PP geraram um fator que descreveu o tratamento de crianças com TI e um outro fator que descreveu o tratamento de crianças com TE. Conclusão O protótipo único da TCC refletiu uma conceptualização geral dessa abordagem, indiscriminada em relação aos sintomas da criança. O protótipo da PP para crianças com TI evidenciou um processo focado na interpretação, enquanto o protótipo da PP para crianças com TE caracterizou um processo suportivo com atenção à relação terapêutica. Infere-se uma maior variação no processo em PP para crianças com diferentes sintomatologias.
