• Resumen

  • Se revisan los distintos estudios que utilizan el método de Velten en la provocación de estados de ánimo depresivos y ansiógenos. Una cuestión que ha atraído la atención de los investigadores es la posible explicación de la efectividad de este método. Es decir, si los resultados obtenidos se pueden atribuir a alguno de los diferentes elementos que lo componen ejemplo, diferentes tipos de autofrases, instrucciones. Otro aspecto importante es la posible existencia de variables mediadoras en la aparición de los estados de ánimo negativos. Finalmente, se revisan los pocos estudios que evalúan también cambios en variables fisiológicas. Se analizan las limitaciones de los estudios presentados y se ofrecen sugerencias para investigaciones futuras.
