Efectividad de una intervención psicosocial para mejorar el bienestar psicosocial en niños víctimas de negligencia infantil: Revisión sistemática a partir de experiencias prácticas

Abstract

Abstract: This curricular integration project addresses the problem of child neglect, identified during practical experiences in an educational setting with children aged 5 to 10 who exhibited difficulties in emotional self-regulation, social withdrawal, emotional deprivation, and signs of physical neglect. Based on this observation, a research question was formulated, and a systematic review of the scientific literature was conducted to analyze the effectiveness of psychological interventions aimed at improving children's well-being in cases of neglect. The results showed that Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Systemic Family Therapy, and play therapy are effective approaches for reducing emotional and behavioral symptoms, strengthening emotional regulation, and fostering more secure attachments. Based on this evidence, a simulated clinical case was developed for a child with reactive attachment disorder associated with child neglect. This case included a psychological evaluation, clinical diagnosis, and an integrative intervention plan tailored to the child's needs. This work made it possible to integrate theory, professional practice and scientific evidence, promoting an ethical, contextualized and well-founded clinical approach to the psychological care of children who are victims of child neglect.
