Recuperación de niños y niñas tras su adopción

Abstract: Los niños y niñas adoptados suelen tener antecedentes de adversidad. Antes de su adopción, muchos fueron objeto de negligencia, maltrato y malnutrición, pasando además un tiempo significativo en instituciones. La investigación ha analizado los retrasos a su llegada y las posteriores posibilidades de recuperación en aspectos de desarrollo tales como el crecimiento físico, la vinculación afectiva, el desarrollo cognitivo y el rendimiento escolar, la autoestima y los problemas de conducta. Mediante una serie de m… Show more

“…Moreover, adolescence, commonly considered a challenging stage of life, could be a particularly difficult time for adoptees considering the special relevance of issues about losses, identity, and origin in this population (Smith, Howard, & Monroe, ). However, research on adoption in adopted adolescents has not provided conclusive evidence on attachment deficits and aggression problems for a number of reasons: (1) studies on attachment in adopted adolescents are still sparse (Escobar, Pereira, & Santelices, ); (2) changes in adolescents’ attachment system may result in different attachment‐related outcomes, depending on the distinct measurement approaches in this developmental period; (3) there is a remarkable lack of research into adopted adolescents’ aggressiveness despite their being at special risk for aggression problems; and (4) most studies only compared adopted teens with nonadopted pairs, neglecting the fact that differences in adoption outcomes vary depending on type of adoption and age of the adopted adolescent (Palacios, Sánchez‐Sandoval, & León, ) and comparison groups (Juffer, van IJzendoorn, & Palacios, ). Thus, more studies are needed to examine differences in adopted adolescents’ attachment security and aggressiveness, considering not only community nonadopted pairs as the comparison group, but also adolescents being treated for aggressive problems.…”

“…Because of these specific circumstances, it has been assumed that international adoptees may show more adjustment problems compared with domestic adoptees. Nevertheless, meta‐analytic research has demonstrated that international adoption itself does not necessarily place a child at higher risk for maladjustment (for overviews, see Van IJzendoorn & Juffer 2006; Juffer et al. 2011) and no significant differences between international and domestic adoptees have been found on cognitive development (Van IJzendoorn et al.…”

“…La revisión efectuada por Juffer et al (2011) no encuentra una edad mágica (Palacios et al, 2005), antes de la cual sean casi inexistentes las secuelas de la adversidad inicial -que en los estudios de Rutter y sus colaboradores parece situarse alrededor de los 6 meses de edad-sino una tendencia continuada en la que una mayor edad implica un mayor riesgo de problemas. Si bien este dato parece ir en contra de la existencia de momentos críticos, sí que parece indicar que existen períodos especialmente sensibles para el desarrollo por parte de niños y niñas de determinadas capacidades, que deben ser especialmente aprovechados y tenidos en cuenta por parte de los profesionales de la protección a la infancia.…”
