Abstract

The study of therapeutic interaction enables to know interpersonal variables responsible for changes in clients, through behavior therapy; so, research with therapeutic interaction may assist therapists to identify behaviors that make interventions most effective. This research aims to describe the behaviors of therapeutic interaction, from sequential analysis, and the therapist's behavior and client as a criterion category and describe the qualifiers of the behaviors. They attended two university students with social anxiety disorder and a therapist. The therapy was performed individual, behavioral analytic, including social skills training and the sessions were recorded on video. Eleven sessions each client were categorized following the agreement between observers, using the Multidimensional System categories protocol behaviors Categorization in Interaction Therapy (SiMCCIT) and The Observer software. It performed sequence analysis with the therapist's behavior and customer category as the criterion and following was conducted frequency analysis of qualifiers behavior: emotional tone and illustrative gestures. The results of sequence analysis, and the therapist's behavior as a criterion, highlights some sequence of therapeutic interaction, the therapist behaviors Reporting Application and Facilitation favored customer report, the categories Information, Interpretation and Recommendation favored the occurrence of Customer Agreement . The results of sequential analysis with customer behavior as a criterion, stands for the Reporting Request therapist behavior that favored the client reporting and behavior reflection Application and Facilitation favored customer relations behavior. The results of the frequency qualifiers behavior show the predominance of the light neutral and positive emotion, and absence of negative emotion both the therapist and for the customer and, in most categories, occurred more frequently illustrative gestures that its absence, except category Report Request. It is argued that the pattern found in the sequences of behaviors that favor the reporting and customer relations and the occurrence of mild neutral and positive emotion in interaction, can be recommended for the care of people with social anxiety disorder.
