Abstract
Maģistra darba mērķis bija pētīt vadītu vizualizāciju ietekmi attiecībā uz tādiem ar psiholoģisko labklājību saistītiem rādītājiem kā pozitīvie un negatīvie afekti, trauksme un stresa sajūta ķermenī ieslodzīto izlasē Latvijā. Šī darba apakšmērķis bija noskaidrot vizualizācijas veida ietekmi – vai vadīta vizualizācija par dabu paaugstina pozitīvos afektus, samazina negatīvos afektus, samazina situatīvās trauksmes rādītājus un stresa sajūtas ķermenī rādītājus vairāk nekā vadīta vizualizācija par pilsētvidi, kā arī vai šie paši rādītāji atšķiras ieslodzīto un brīvībā esošo cilvēku izlasēs. Pētījums tika veikts trīs Latvijas ieslodzījuma vietās, un tajā bija 44 ieslodzītie, kas tika sadalīti divās grupās. Kvazisperimentālajai grupai (n=21) tika vadīta vizualizācija par dabu, bet kontrolgrupai (n=23) tika vadīta vizualizācija par pilsētu. Brīvībā esošo dalībnieku izlasē bija 29 dalībnieki. Kvazieksperimentālajai grupai (n=15) tika vadīta vizualizācija par dabu, un kontrolgrupai (n=14) tika vadīta vizualizācija par pilsētu. Tika izmantota “PANAS pozitīvo un negatīvo afektu skala”, “Spīlbergera trauksmes aptaujas” situatīvās trauksmes skala un “Stresa sajūta ķermenī” aptauja. Tika secināts, ka vadītas vizualizācijas gan par dabu, gan pilsētvidi samazina stresa sajūtas ķermenī, situatīvās trauksmes un negatīvo afektu rādītājus ieslodzīto un brīvībā esošo dalībnieku izlasēs. Savukārt vizualizācija par dabu vairāk samazina stresa sajūtu ķermenī brīvībā esošo cilvēku izlasē.
The aim of this master’s thesis was to examine the effects of guided imagery on indicators related to psychological well-being— positive and negative affect, state anxiety, and physical experience of stress —among a sample of incarcerated individuals in Latvia. A secondary aim was to investigate the influence of the type of visualization used: whether a nature-based guided imagery increases positive affect and decreases negative affect, state anxiety, and physical experience of stress more effectively than an urban-based guided imagery. Additionally, the study sought to determine whether these psychological indicators differ between incarcerated and non-incarcerated samples. The study was conducted in three Latvian correctional facilities and involved 44 incarcerated participants, who were divided into two groups. The quasi-experimental group (n=21) received a guided nature imagery, while the control group (n=23) received a guided urban imagery. The non-incarcerated sample consisted of 29 participants, with the quasi-experimental group (n=15) receiving nature imagery and the control group (n=14) receiving urban imagery. The following psychometric tools were used: The Positive and Negative Affect Scale (PANAS), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Physical experience of stress survey. The findings indicated that both nature- and urban-based guided imagery reduced physical experience of stress, state anxiety, and negative affect among both incarcerated and non-incarcerated participants. However, in the non-incarcerated sample, the nature visualization was found to reduce perceived bodily stress more significantly than the urban visualization.
