    Tracking narrative change in the context of extremism and terrorism: Adapting the Innovative Moments Coding System
    2019-07 - Silva, Raquel da; Fernández-Navarro, Pablo; Gonçalves, Miguel M.; Rosa, Catarina; Silva, Joana Ribeiro da
    Existing models of deradicalisation, countering violent extremism (CVE), and counter-terrorism (CT) have lacked a clear theory of change, as well as robust empirical methodologies. This paper proposes an empirically-based systematic and transparent methodology – the Innovative Moments Coding System (IMCS) – which is empirically sensitive, ethically defensible, and can be of use in the context of research to inform practitioner contexts. Through a case study of former violent militants, we explore the adaptation and usage of this instrument to identify and track self-narrative change in the processes of engagement and disengagement, as well as radicalisation and deradicalisation in the context of violent extremism and terrorism. We illustrate how this methodology has the potential to bring benefits to the work of researchers involved in producing guidelines for disengagement, deradicalisation or risk-reduction interventions.

    Relational schemas as mediators of innovative moments in symptom improvement in major depression
    2017-08-05 - Batista, João; Freitas, Sara; Alves, Daniela; Machado, Anabela; Sousa, Inês; Fernández-Navarro, Pablo; Magalhães, Carina; Gonçalves, Miguel M.; Silva, Joana Ribeiro da
    Objectives: Innovative moments (IMs) are exceptions to the maladaptive framework of meaning that typically motivates clients to seek psychotherapy, and previous studies have shown that IMs are associated with psychotherapy outcomes. While IMs are exceptions that occur at the level of the therapeutic conversation, relational schemas are more stable patterns, and their increased flexibility may facilitate change during psychotherapy. With this in mind, we tested the hypothesis that IMs contribute to outcomes by improving the flexibility of relational schemas. Method: The Core Conflictual Relationship Theme (CCRT) was used to assess relational schemas. IMs were evaluated using the Innovative Moments Coding System. The sample included 22 clients diagnosed with major depressive disorder. The flexibility of the three components of the CCRT (Wishes, responses of the self (RS), and responses of others (RO)) were tested as mediators between IMs and outcomes. Results: The flexibility of the RS was a mediator between IMs and outcomes, but Wishes and RO were not. Conclusion: These findings align with previous research showing that RS is the component most open to change, whereas the other components seem less sensitive to change during brief therapy.

    Disengagement from political violence and deradicalization: A narrative-dialogical
    2018-03-15 - Silva, Raquel da; Fernández-Navarro, Pablo; Gonçalves, Miguel M.; Rosa, Catarina; Silva, Joana Ribeiro da
    This article applies a dialogical analysis to the change processes involved in moving from engagement with to disengagement from an armed militant group, as well as from radicalization to deradicalization. The findings underline the interplay between different push and pull factors at individual, organizational, and societal levels that played a role in the already mentioned processes in three periods of time—engagement with, life within, and disengagement from an armed organization. The dialogical framework conceptualizes the development trajectory as relationships between a variety of positions of the self (I-positions), which generate different personal meanings involved in processes of disengagement and deradicalization.
