“…Afterwards, participants read the GRC vignettes (one GRC vignette per participant) with the instruction of reading as slow as possible (corresponding to the pseudo-condition of slow reading as they were initially informed), while they were also told that these scripts were excerpts from true interviews. More importantly for our purposes, participants were emphatically instructed to imagine themselves in the position of the hero of the vignette, visualize their own possible reactions, thoughts, and emotional experiences to the actions of other actors in the vignette (Skeens, 2017). The previous instruction to read slowly was expected to allow for the full expression of the relevant imagery.…”

Gender Role Conflict (GRC) is manifested through certain behavioral patterns when the person adopts unquestionably restrictive gender roles with negative consequences both at intrapersonal and interpersonal level. There is evidence that socially desired masculine behavior is in transition in modern Greek society boosting GRC among Greek men. In this study, GRC patterns have been assessed experimentally using the imagery technique in 1051 Greek men. Emotionally elicited vignettes were created, each demonstrating a different context (Men's gender role conflict: Psychological costs, consequences, and an agenda for change. American Psychological Association): (1) developmental, (2) family – friends’ relations and (3) conformity to masculinity ideology, homonegativity and violent behaviour. A mixed ANOVA revealed a significant three-way interaction between GRC patterns scoring, GRC vignettes and time (before and after reading the GRC vignettes). Further investigation of the three-way interaction revealed that vignettes reflecting social pressure to conform to masculinity ideology in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood as well as vignettes reflecting outright bullying to conform to such stereotypic roles had a significant impact on GRC patterns scoring, mostly decreasing conflict. The construction and testing of the GRC vignettes can update the existing tools for assessing GRC. Moreover, the vignettes could be employed to shed light on the possible causes of GRC.

“…Ketika individu memiliki tingkat social appearance anxiety yang tinggi, maka individu tersebut mempunyai perbedaan antara penilaian diri dan atribut fisik idealnya, memiliki disfungsional skema tentang arti dan pentingnya sebuah penampilan, merasa tidak menarik, memiliki perasaan tertekan yang menetap akan penampilannya, dan fokus yang berlebihan tentang kegemukan atau menjadi gemuk (Hart, dkk., 2008dalam Ko, 2010 (Panneerselvam & Govindharaj, 2016) yang disajikan dalam kata-kata atau suara stimulus lain (Erford, 2016). Guided imagery memanfaatkan ketidaksadaran individu untuk berkomunikasi dengan pikiran sadar mereka (Skeens, 2017) Tugas individu sebagai klien dalam terapi ini adalah aktif membayangkan atau memvisualisasikan sesuatu dan berhasil mengatasi setiap tahapannya (Erford, 2016).…”

“…Guided imagery sudah banyak digunakan untuk membantu individu mengurangi rasa sakit, mengurangi dan mengelola stres dan mencapai well-being (Dossey, Keegan, Guzzeta, & Kolkmeier, 1995;Thomas, 1991;Vines, 1988dalam Ackerman & Turkoski, 2000 (Panneerselvam & Govindharaj, 2016) yang disajikan dalam kata-kata atau suara stimulus lain (Erford, 2016). Guided imagery memanfaatkan ketidaksadaran individu untuk berkomunikasi dengan pikiran sadar mereka (Skeens, 2017) guna membentuk perubahan yang lebih positif (Panneerselvam & Govindharaj, 2016), mengubah isu emosional atau interpersonal, memunculkan tujuan-tujuan perubahan, berlatih perilaku baru atau mengontrol tingkat emosi atau stresnya (Arbuthnott, dkk., 2001dalam Erford, 2016. Tugas individu sebagai klien dalam terapi ini adalah aktif membayangkan atau memvisualisasikan sesuatu dan berhasil mengatasi setiap tahapannya (Erford, 2016).…”

“…Carpenter et al's integrative review of the effectiveness of guided imagery for pain management in postoperative patients found that it may be an effective tool for reducing pain in postoperative orthopaedic patients (Carpenter et al, 2017). An integrative review by Skeens showed that guided imagery can be used in children and adults to create feelings of empowerment and relaxation; increase endorphins; and decrease anxiety, pain, blood loss, and the use of pain medications (Skeens, 2017). By refocusing the mind, guided imagery affects the limbic system, facilitating physiological relaxation by lowering the sympathetic responses and increasing the parasympathetic nervous system responses.…”
