| Key findings | The review indicates that mindfulness-based therapies appear to positively influence the behaviors and emotions of people with borderline, mild, or moderate intellectual disability over age sixteen, based on thirteen included articles. The authors caution that methodological limitations in the reviewed studies mean these results should be interpreted cautiously and require confirmation through further research with improved designs. |
Abstract
El objetivo del presente trabajo ha sido realizar una revisión sistemática de los estudios científicos que han aplicado tratamientos psicológicos basados en mindfulness a población con discapacidad intelectual para profundizar en la evidencia disponible respecto a su aplicabilidad y eficacia. Para ello se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en diferentes bases de datos desde julio de 2015 hasta mayo de 2016 y se utilizaron referencias comprendidas entre los años 2000 y 2015. Se seleccionaron y analizaron trece artículos que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión. Los resultados obtenidos indicaron que las terapias basadas en mindfulness parecen influir positivamente en las conductas y emociones de personas con discapacidad intelectual límite, media o moderada, con una edad superior a dieciséis años. Estos hallazgos, sin embargo, deben ser interpretados con cautela debido a las limitaciones metodológicas identificadas en los estudios revisados, siendo necesario seguir investigando y mejorando los diseños de las investigaciones, para poder corroborar los resultados iniciales.
