Resumen

Este estudio realizó una revisión de alcance sobre el gaslighting en las relaciones íntimas, con el objetivo de analizar cómo la literatura científica ha estudiado el fenómeno en adultos, sin restringir los estudios en función del sexo, la identidad de género o el tipo de relación afectiva de los miembros de la pareja implicados. La búsqueda se realizó en las bases de datos Scopus, CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycNet, PubMed, PsycInfo y Sage Journals, y una búsqueda complementaria en Google Scholar con el objetivo de localizar estudios nacionales no indexados en revistas de alto impacto. Los resultados dieron lugar a 14 estudios considerados aptos para su inclusión en el análisis principal. Los resultados mostraron que el gaslighting en las relaciones íntimas ha sido investigado desde siete perspectivas principales: factores de riesgo y predictores, tácticas o mecanismos, motivaciones, herramientas de evaluación, daño causado a las víctimas, estrategias de afrontamiento y variables correlacionadas con el gaslighting. Es importante señalar que los artículos seleccionados adoptaron un diseño muestral de conveniencia, compuesto predominantemente por muestras femeninas, lo que puede influir en la comprensión de este fenómeno. En resumen, se espera que los resultados de este estudio puedan contribuir al desarrollo de nuevas investigaciones sobre el fenómeno, especialmente en el contexto brasileño, y posibilitar la discusión de estrategias de intervención que busquen identificar, prevenir y lidiar con esa forma de violencia en las relaciones amorosas, a fin de promover relaciones más saludables.
