Recension systématique et critique des études portant sur l'utilisation de la variable motivationnelle dans les inerventions auprès d'adolescent(e)s atteint(e)s d'anorexie mentale
Adolescents with anorexia are often described as young people with low motivation to change their behavior and to engage in the proposed interventions. To remedy this situation, motivational interviewing (MI) has been identified as a method that could improve the motivation to change and commitment to treatment. Furthermore, it has been observed that confusion exist in the literature between the MI and the stages of change of the transtheoretical model of change. It has been decided to consider these two concepts as a motivational variable. The aim of this literature review is to explore the use of the motivational variable in the care of adolescents with anorexia. The studies included in the review have been identified in databases Ovid Medline and PsycINFO. All articles have been analyzed according to several categories. It has been concluded that the high motivation to change was related to low psychological distress and to the improvement of motivation and commitment to treatment for individuals with eating disorders including adolescents with anorexia. Recommendations are made for future research.
