RESUMEN
En los últimos años ha crecido notablemente el interés por
una dimensión conocida como
Sluggish Cognitive Tempo
(SCT), que se refiere a aquellos individuos que presentan una
sintomatología inatenta, diferente a la descrita para la Inatención
(IN) en el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad
(TDAH), y una conducta y un pensamiento enlentecidos.
Esta dimensión SCT no se encuentra exenta de
controversias, la mayoría relacionadas con su elevada asociación
con el TDAH-IN. Es por ello, que el objetivo del presente
trabajo consiste en revisar la situación actual en que se encuentra
el constructo SCT, así como realizar un recorrido a lo
largo de la historia sobre esta dimensión. Se comentarán las
distintas definiciones existentes de SCT, los instrumentos de
medida que se han venido utilizando a lo largo de los años
por distintos investigadores, los primeros datos epidemiológicos
del constructo, y, sobre todo, las implicaciones que
supone la presencia de esta sintomatología a distintos niveles.
Se pondrá especial atención a las implicaciones en áreas
psicopatológicas (sintomatología internalizada y externalizada),
de rendimiento académico y relación social. También se
valorarán aquellos estudios que traten de averiguar las implicaciones
a nivel neuropsicológico del SCT, especialmente en
cuanto a las alteraciones en funciones ejecutivas. Algunas de
las conclusiones más interesantes son que el estudio del SCT
se extiende a poblaciones de distintas condiciones clínicas
(principalmente pacientes con sintomatología TDAH), que se
encuentran escalas de medida válidas y fiables para evaluar
la presencia de la sintomatología SCT (algo que permite aumentar
la comprensión de esta dimensión), y que se aportan
datos suficientes para afirmar que SCT conforma un constructo
distinto a la Inatención del TDAH, con correlatos internos
y externos diferenciados. Por todo ello sería recomendable
incluir una medida SCT en protocolos de evaluación psicopatológica
infantil (especialmente ante sospecha de TDAHIN),
así como proponer tratamientos especializados para individuos
con esta sintomatología.
