Abstract

This work is aimed to describe a novel didactic game with projective utility: Person on Stage (PSE-JD). The instrument was designed to reveal the self-assessment modality used by a performer, and the internal conflicts arising from it. A sample of 48 students and teachers from the Conservatorio Superior de Música Astor Piazzolla of Buenos Aires. The use of PSE-JD allowed us to characterize three main aspects: a) the self-assessment mode used by each student: most of them use confrontational, reactive, dependent or abandoning modalities; b) the level of parity or disparity in relation to the power given to the self-evaluation: about two thirds exhibited asymmetric relationship where the performer is dominated by the self-assessment; c) the reaction of the performer against the self-evaluation: most of the participants exhibited a submission attitude. Besides allowing an empirical characterization of the self-assessment modality, the PSE-JD has an epistemological purpose, enabling a deep analysis of authoritative relations installed during learning and allowing the study of the emergence of Music Performance Anxiety. It appears as a useful tool to be applied in the pedagogical field as a powerful regulator of teaching, learning and evaluation processes.
