Resumen

Resumen La desensibilización y el reprocesamiento por medio de movimientos oculares (EMDR) ha suscitado un gran número de estudios desde su aparición en 1989. El objetivo principal de este artículo es describir su desarrollo y evolución hasta la actualidad. Para ello se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en MEDLINE y PsycINFO con la entrada “eye movement desensitizacion”. Tras la revisión de los 795 artículos resultantes, se eligieron aquellos que por su relevancia e interés mostraban mejor el desarrollo y evolución de la técnica. Además, se configuró una línea de vida que representó gráficamente su historia. Aunque en los primeros años el foco de investigación fue la validación de la técnica para el trastorno de estrés postraumático (TEPT), ésta comenzó muy rápidamente a aplicarse a otras problemáticas. Solo un 14% de los trabajos encontrados son estudios experimentales controlados. Actualmente, si bien se ha demostrado su eficacia como tratamiento del TEPT, se siguen barajando diversas hipótesis explicativas de su eficacia.
