Background Transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral therapy (tCBT) has presented itself as an intervention proposal that aims to integrate the common processes of human functioning with the therapeutic strategies of conventional cognitive-behavioral therapy, considered the gold standard for treating numerous disorders. Objective As far as we know, this review is the first to specifically evaluate transdiagnostic cognitive-behavioral interventions in groups. This review aimed to systematically examine the evidence regarding the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral transdiagnostic interventions in groups for the adult population compared to the general interventions or no intervention (control/waiting list). Method The report of the systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. PsycINFO, PubMed, and Web of Science databases were searched, obtaining a total of 1,058 records. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 32 articles, published between 2005 and 2022, were selected. Eligible studies were submitted to the assessment of the potential risk of bias through Cochrane's tool for risk assessment of bias (RoB 2). Results The results suggest that transdiagnostic treatments are superior to waiting list conditions and the common treatments, and are at least as effective as active control interventions and specific cognitive-behavioral treatments for diagnosis.
Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) have been explored to be an effective alternative to integrating mental health intervention proposals, particularly in eldercare. The objective is to map the usability and applications of VR and AR technologies in interventions for the elderly population. The main areas of interventions in AR and VR applied to the elderly are stimulation and cognitive rehabilitation, physical rehabilitation, treatment of mental diseases, and promotion of quality of life. Despite the need for further studies, VR and AR have strong adherence among the elderly and demonstrate promising potential in interventions that seek to promote mental health and improve the quality of life.
ResumoO estudo tem o intuito de contribuir com discussões relacionadas ao advento da terceira idade e suas implicações em relação à ideologia narcisista social em que vivemos hoje, induzida pela mídia, salientando, ainda, a importância desse tema para outros campos de estudo, como a psicologia, a gerontologia e a geriatria. A pesquisa realizada é uma revisão bibliográfica referente à ascensão da população idosa na pirâmide sociodemográfica brasileira e a sua experiência do processo de envelhecimento, e no conceito em que é vivido de maneira estigmatizada, passa a representar uma ameaça à aceitação de si, tornando os indivíduos vulneráveis a sofrimentos psíquicos de toda ordem e até mesmo a patologias. Para um gerascofóbico o despertar da doença é pertinente a um temor do que lhes espera na maturidade, com isso, cria-se um medo do decorrer do ciclo da vida, não compreendendo de forma natural as consequências que o processo de envelhecer aborda, arriscando de diversas maneiras retardar os sinais da velhice.Percebe-se, então, a presença de sintomas fisiológicos reais de ansiedade patológica, que se caracteriza de um medo exacerbado, podendo afetar a vida de um indiví-duo, causando tensões, angústias e preocupações exageradas, levando à busca, a qualquer custo, da "fonte da juventude", sem considerar os riscos relacionados a essa prática.Palavras-chave: Gerascofobia. Fobia. Envelhecimento. Transtorno de ansiedade. IntroduçãoA passagem por diferentes fases da vida é um processo pelo qual todos, inevitavelmente, passam. A ciência desse processo, contudo, não evita que os medos inerentes a ele instalem-se nos indivíduos. Estamos cada vez mais preocupados com o envelhecimento e os seus danos.
