• Resumen
  • español

    Desde la eliminación de la homosexualidad como trastorno mental y con la proliferación de la investigación sobre el estigma y sus resultados en la salud mental, se han publicado numerosas investigaciones que tienen como objetivo estudiar la respuesta al tratamiento psicológico de las minorías sexuales y determinar si es necesario llevar a cabo adaptaciones del mismo como se hace con otros grupos minoritarios. Esta revisión reúne la investigación disponible para analizar si las minorías sexuales responden de forma diferencial a los tratamientos habituales y si las intervenciones adaptadas o afirmativas ofrecen mejores resultados que el tratamiento habitual.

    Since the declassification of homosexuality as a mental disorder and the proliferation of research about stigma and its outcomes in mental health, a significant number of papers have been published to study how sexual minorities respond to psychological treatment and whether adapted treatment or affirmative interventions are necessary, as is done with other minority groups. The objective of this review of the available literature is to determine if sexual minorities have the same response to standard treatments as their heterosexual erparts, and whether adapted or affirmative interventions offer them better outcomes than standard treatment.
