La eficacia de la aplicación de técnicas vivenciales en la autoestima de cuidadores de pacientes con enfermedad crónica renal

Abstract

The present research work is developed with the main objective of determining the effectiveness of the application of experiential techniques in the self-esteem of caregivers of patients with chronic kidney disease who are dialyzed at the Puyo General Hospital. For which a type of quasi-experimental research was applied, in which, with 60 volunteers, they were divided into two groups, a control group, who were not part of the experiential techniques, and the experimental group, who were participants in these workshops, to achieve a comparative analysis. It was developed through direct observation in the workshops and the application of the Coopersmith self-esteem inventory for type C adults, following the pretest and posttest methodology. The results found of the application of experiential techniques in selfesteem were evident since the subjects in the pre-test stage of both groups obtained a

score that estimated them with low self-esteem, consequently, the experimental group

after

3 weeks of workshops and the application of Experiential techniques obtained high scores on the Coopersmith scale, which classified them with a medium-high and high self-esteem, indicating that experiential techniques have a high impact on increasing the self-esteem of caregivers, these results are corroborated by the T of Wilcoxon which suggests that there is a significant correlation between the increase in self-esteem and the development of experiential therapies, establishing this type of techniques as effective
