ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy) is a psychotherapeutic technique developed by H. Davanloo for the treatment of a variety of psychological problems. One of its main goals is to help patients overcome their difficulties in a short period of time. Through a face-to-face approach and the therapist's attentive and consistently active attitude, patients experience previously repressed emotional content, which, when unexpressed, has led to pathological symptoms. This study aims to examine the outcome and process aspects in a single-case study conducted using the ISTDP model to understand the factors contributing to potential patient change during treatment. To achieve this, it employs linguistic measures derived from W. Bucci's Multiple Code Theory. The results demonstrate an improvement in the patient's outcome. Furthermore, it was observed that changes in certain linguistic measures contributed to the patient's transformation, leading to greater integration between subsymbolic and symbolic aspects, along with enhanced reflection. The findings highlight the utility of applying linguistic measures to cases to comprehend the factors contributing to change.
L’ISTDP è una tecnica psicoterapica messa a punto da H. Davanloo per la cura di un’eterogeneità di problemi psicologici. Uno dei suoi obiettivi principali è quello di aiutare i pazienti a superare le loro difficoltà in tempi brevi. Attraverso un approccio vis a vis e un atteggiamento attento e costantemente attivo del terapeuta, il paziente giunge ad esperire contenuti emotivi fino ad allora repressi e che, in quanto inespressi, hanno dato origine ad una sintomatologia patologica. La presente ricerca si propone di esaminare gli aspetti di outcome e processo in un single-case study condotto con il modello ISTDP al fine di comprendere quali fattori contribuiscano a un potenziale cambiamento del paziente in trattamento. Per realizzare questo effetto impiega alcune misure linguistiche ricavate dalla teoria del codice multiplo di W. Bucci. I risultati mostrano un miglioramento dell’outcome nella paziente; inoltre, si è osservato come la variazione di alcune misure linguistiche abbia contribuito al cambiamento nella paziente, la quale ha raggiunto una maggior integrazione tra aspetti subsimbolici e simbolici, assieme ad una migliore riflessione. I risultati evidenziano l’utilità di applicare le misure linguistiche ai casi per comprendere quali fattori concorrono al cambiamento.

Abstract
ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy) is a psychotherapeutic technique developed by H. Davanloo for the treatment of a variety of psychological problems. One of its main goals is to help patients overcome their difficulties in a short period of time. Through a face-to-face approach and the therapist's attentive and consistently active attitude, patients experience previously repressed emotional content, which, when unexpressed, has led to pathological symptoms. This study aims to examine the outcome and process aspects in a single-case study conducted using the ISTDP model to understand the factors contributing to potential patient change during treatment. To achieve this, it employs linguistic measures derived from W. Bucci's Multiple Code Theory. The results demonstrate an improvement in the patient's outcome. Furthermore, it was observed that changes in certain linguistic measures contributed to the patient's transformation, leading to greater integration between subsymbolic and symbolic aspects, along with enhanced reflection. The findings highlight the utility of applying linguistic measures to cases to comprehend the factors contributing to change.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
