Abstract(s)
A presente investigação incide sobre o estudo das Distorções da Experiência
Temporal, nomeadamente distorções da Sucessão Temporal e da Integração temporal e
experiências de timelessness; e sobre a exploração da sua relação com a identidade,
através do estudo das Experiências Dissociativas normativas e da Coesão da Narrativa
Autobiográfica. Os principais objetivos da investigação prendem-se com (1) explorar as
distorções da Experiência Temporal; (2) perceber como as diferentes distorções na
Experiência Temporal se relacionam com Experiências Dissociativas; (3) perceber como
as diferentes distorções da Experiência Temporal se relacionam com a Coesão das
Narrativas Autobiográficas; (4) e explorar a relação entre a Coesão das Narrativas
Autobiográficas e as Experiências de Dissociação. Fizeram parte do estudo 221
participantes com média de idades de 35.69 anos, que completaram um Questionário
Sociodemográfico, o Time Integration Questionnaire (TIQ), o Awareness of Narrative
Identity Questionnaire (ANIQ) e o Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES). Os
instrumentos TIQ e ANIQ foram, ainda, traduzidos para a população portuguesa.
Os resultados sugerem que o contacto com a arte, a presença de psicopatologia e o
consumo de substâncias psicotrópicas não prescritas são fatores que se relacionam com
as distorções na Sucessão e Integração Temporal; e que a experiência mística se relaciona
ainda com experiências de timelessness. Se por um lado experiências positivas, como a
criatividade, se relacionam com distorções na Experiência Temporal, também
experiências negativas, como a psicopatologia e o consumo de substâncias, demonstram
essa relação. As implicações deste aparente paradoxo são exploradas na discussão. Os
resultados sugerem ainda que a Experiência Dissociativa, principalmente ao nível da
Despersonalização/ desrealização, se associa a experiências de timelessness e que explica
e prevê melhor distorções na Sucessão Temporal; e que a falha na Coesão das Narrativas
Autobiográficas, principalmente na Coesão Causal, explica e prevê melhor distorções na
Integração Temporal. Ou seja, Experiências de Dissociação preveem distorções na
experiência temporal do instante, do presente e de momentos específicos; e problemas na
Coesão das Narrativas Autobiográficas preveem distorções no paradigma e na
experiência global e integradora do tempo.
This research focuses on the study of time distortions, specifically on time succession and time integration and on experiences of timelessness; and on the relationship between these time distortions and identity through the study of normative dissociative experiences and the coherence of autobiographical narratives. The main objectives are (1) exploring the different types of time distortions; (2) exploring the relationship between time distortions and dissociative experiences; (3) exploring the relationship between time distortions and the coherence of autobiographical narratives; (4) and exploring the relationship between the coherence of autobiographical narratives and dissociative experiences. There were 221 participants on this research with an average of 35.69 years old. They answered a Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Time Integration Questionnaire (TIQ), the Awareness of Narrative Identity Questionnaire (ANIQ) and the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES). The TIQ and ANIQ were also translated and adapted to the Portuguese population. The results suggest that contact with art, psychopathology and the consumption of nonprescription drugs are related to temporal distortions; and that mystical experiences are also related to experiences of timelessness. On the one hand, positive experiences such as creativity and art are related to distortions in time experience. On the other hand, negative experiences such as psychopathology and drug consumption are also related to the distortions in time experience, which suggests a paradox. The implications of these relationships are discussed in this study. The results also suggest that dissociative experiences, especially the experience of depersonalization/ derealization is related to the experience of timelessness and is better at predicting distortions in time succession; and that the lack of autobiographical memory coherence, especially of causal coherence, is better at predicting distortions in temporal integration. These findings seem to suggest that dissociative experiences explain distortions in specific experiences situated in particular moments in time, whilst lack of autobiographical memory coherence explains distortions of the time flow and of the temporal paradigm.
