RESUMEN
Los problemas pediátricos de la alimentación ocurren en una alta proporción de niños, y en especial en aquellos con trastornos del desarrollo. De no ser atendidos, estos problemas pueden tener repercusiones negativas en la salud de los infantes, como: pérdida severa de peso, malnutrición, retardo en el crecimiento, y en casos extremos la muerte. La aproximación del análisis conductual aplicado al desarrollo de métodos de evaluación y tratamiento de problemas de alimentación en ni˜nos ha probado ser exitosa para incrementar la ingesta,al mismo tiempo que disminuye la conducta desadaptativa. En este artículo, el primero de su tipo en lengua castellana, se realiza una revisión crítica de los métodos de evaluación y tratamiento desarrollados bajo una perspectiva analítico-conductual, se ejemplifica su aplicaciónen un caso clínico, y se plantean futuras líneas de investigación en esta área. Se concluye quelos procedimientos desarrollados desde esta perspectiva han probado ser efectivos para tra-tar los problemas pediátricos de la alimentación. La investigación futura deberá enfocarse en delimitar los parámetros de los tratamientos en un esfuerzo por determinar la efectividad de estos, así como en desarrollar programas de entrenamiento para padres, con el fin de tratar y prevenir problemas de alimentación en sus hijos.
