Care relationships have been investigated by means of variables such as satisfaction, trust, compliance and personality traits related to relationship outcomes.

Five groups of research will present their studies: two groups from Padua and Perugia will present three studies on analysis of care relationships in psychotherapy as a tool to investigate patients’ trauma, emotional involvement in relation and countertransference experience.

Abstract
Care relationships have been investigated by means of variables such as satisfaction, trust, compliance and personality traits related to relationship outcomes. Few studies used narratives and emotional responses to investigate relationships between health professionals and patients. Starting from the consideration that narrative is a relational act (Bruner, 2004) and that all relationships are strictly dependent on narrative among their members (Smorti, 2019), the proposed symposium aims to bring evidence to the use of narrative and emotional responses in exploring care relationships, comparing different methods of data collection and data analysis. Five groups of research will present their studies: two groups from Padua and Perugia will present three studies on analysis of care relationships in psychotherapy as a tool to investigate patients’ trauma, emotional involvement in relation and countertransference experience. Firenze and Salerno will focus on the use of narratives as a tool to investigate care relationships in medicine and to promote education to communication and socio-emotional skills. The invited discussant will promote a discussion comparing and analyzing different methodological uses and roles of personal narratives in exploring relationships of care contexts.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
