    El objetivo del presente trabajo ha sido realizar una revisión sistemática de los estudios científicos que han aplicado tratamientos psicológicos basados en mindfulness a población con discapacidad intelectual para profundizar en la evidencia disponible respecto a su aplicabilidad y eficacia. Para ello se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en diferentes bases de datos desde julio de 2015 hasta mayo de 2016 y se utilizaron referencias comprendidas entre los años 2000 y 2015. Se seleccionaron y analizaron trece artículos que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión. Los resultados obtenidos indicaron que las terapias basadas en mindfulness parecen influir positivamente en las conductas y emociones de personas con discapacidad intelectual límite, media o moderada, con una edad superior a dieciséis años. Estos hallazgos, sin embargo, deben ser interpretados con cautela debido a las limitaciones metodológicas identificadas en los estudios revisados, siendo necesario seguir investigando y mejorando los diseños de las investigaciones, para poder corroborar los resultados iniciales.

    The aim of this work was to carry out a systematic review of scientific studies that have applied psychological mindfulness-based treatments on people with intellectual disabilities to delve into the available evidence regarding their applicability and efficiency.

    Therefore, a bibliographic research was carried out for the different data bases from July 2015 to May 2016 and different references were taken between 2000 and 2015. Thirteen relevant articles were chosen and analyzed. The reported findings suggested that the mindfulness-based therapies seems to have a positive influence on the behavior and emotions of people over sixteen with borderline, medium and moderate intellectual disabilities.

    However, these findings should be carefully interpreted due to the methodological limitations identified in the reviewed studies, and it is necessary to continue investigating and improving research designs in order that they can confirm the initial results.
