Psychotherapeutic Playback Theatre, Well-Being, and Psychological Distress: An Impact Study.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Psychotherapeutic Playback Theatre (PPT) is a new psychotherapeutic format inspired by Playback Theatre and several therapies. The research presented here aims to study the impact of PPT on the Well-being and Psychological Distress of participants in this expressive-based group psychotherapy. To achieve this, after training 30 psychotherapists and creating an implementation handbook for their use, the research team assisted 20 of them (individually or in groups of two or three) in implementing therapeutic groups that offered 12 weekly sessions, each lasting two to three hours. Nine groups were formed, including a total of 50 participants, who were assessed before and after the PPT program using questionnaires evaluating Psychological Distress and Well-being. The latter consisted of six subscales: Autonomy, Environmental Mastery, Personal Growth, Positive Relations with Others, Purpose in Life, and Self-Acceptance. A control group of 50 participants was assessed using the same variables. No significant differences were found between pre- and post-tests in the control group. However, significant differences were observed in the PPT group, with Psychological Distress decreasing and Well-being improving, both on the total scale and across all subscales except for Self-Acceptance. This set of results allows us to establish connections between participation in the PPT sessions and the positive psycho-emotional effects on participants.
