A presente Dissertação foi realizada sob a orientação da Prof.ª Doutora Ângela
Leite e foi desenvolvida no segundo ano do Mestrado em Psicologia Clínica e da Saúde,
da Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências Sociais da Universidade Católica Portuguesa
Centro Regional de Braga.
Esta teve como objetivo avaliar se a indução de sentimentos de perdão e gratidão
através da utilização de Realidade Virtual diminui a amargura nos participantes. Para isso,
os participantes foram avaliados em dois momentos, onde se iria avaliar se de facto, com
a utilização de Realidade Virtual havia, ou não, um aumento da gratidão e do perdão e
uma diminuição de amargura comparativamente ao primeiro momento. Para avaliar a
eficácia da investigação foram utilizados os testes paramétricos como o t de Student,
testes de correlações e, testes não paramétricos de Kruskal Wallis e Mann-Whitney.
Os resultados obtidos vieram corroborar as hipóteses colocadas, sendo que
através do uso de Realidade Virtual houve uma diminuição da amargura e um aumento
de sentimentos de perdão e gratidão nos participantes. Por sua vez, a Realidade Virtual
revela-se como uma ferramenta de intervenção psicológica promissora pela sua facilidade
de aplicação, baixo custo e pelo curto espaço de tempo até atingir os objetivos
terapêuticos.
This Dissertation was carried out under the guidance of Professor Ângela Leite and was developed in the second year of the Master's in Clinical and Health Psychology, Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, Catholic University of Portugal Regional Center of Braga. The present Dissertation aimed to evaluate whether the induction of feelings of forgiveness and gratitude through the use of Virtual Reality reduces the bitterness in the participants. For this, the participants were evaluated in two moments, where it would be evaluated whether, in fact, with the use of Virtual Reality there was, or not, an increase in gratitude and forgiveness and a decrease in bitterness compared to the first moment. Parametric tests such as Student's t test, correlation tests and non-parametric Kruskal Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were used to assess the effectiveness of the investigation. The results obtained corroborate the hypotheses made, and through the use of Virtual Reality there was a decrease in bitterness and an increase in feelings of forgiveness and gratitude in the participants. In turn, Virtual Reality proves to be a promising psychological intervention tool due to its ease of application, low cost and short time to reach therapeutic goals.
