Resumen
Antecedentes: identificar subgrupos de pacientes que demuestren diferentes trayectorias de cambio terapéutico durante psicoterapia en contextos realistas es relevante para el desarrollo de procesos terapéuticos personalizados y efectivos. Objetivos: El presente estudio tuvo como objetivos (a) identificar trayectorias de cambios terapéutico en pacientes chilenos (b) explorar variables que puedan predecir la probabilidad de pertenecer a ciertas trayectorias y (c) examinar si estas diferentes trayectorias desembocan en distintos resultados terapéuticos. Método: se llevaron a cabo análisis de modelos de crecimientos mixto (Growth Mixture Modeling - GMM) y regresiones logísticas multinominales en una muestra de 400 pacientes chilenos recibiendo psicoterapia en un centro de salud mental privado. Resultados: se identificaron tres trayectorias de cambio terapéutico (a) disfunción inicial moderada con leve deterioro, (b) disfunción inicial leve con cambio favorable y (c) disfunción inicial severa con rápido cambio favorable. La edad de los pacientes fue considerada un factor predictor de trayectoria significativa, sugiriendo una peor prognosis para pacientes de mayor edad. Además, todas las trayectorias fueron predictoras del resultado terapéutico. Conclusiones: estos resultados pueden ser utilizados para desarrollar intervenciones enfocadas en el paciente, basadas en las trayectorias de cambio que exhiban.
