Abstract

Introduction: In contrast to some single-school approaches, integrative therapy is not restricted to a particular methodology or school of thought. Instead, therapists can use different techniques as needed. The aim is to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the treatment and adapt it to the specific needs of the individual. Understanding the extent to which the description of these therapies allows them to be replicated could provide insights into reproducibility and guidance on how to improve it. A mini-review was thus planned to assess the descriptions of interventions based on the Integrative Therapy (IT) approach in research articles that were published in the last five years. Methods: Studies whose primary aim was to test the efficacy of IT interventions on any psychological disorder were searched on PsycInfo, Ovid MEDLINE, and Embase and were randomly selected. The descriptions of IT interventions are being assessed through the TIDieR (Template for Intervention Description and Replication) checklist. Results: The mini-review is still ongoing and results will be presented, discussed and compared in the symposium. Discussion: Even though the results of the mini-review cannot underpin any conclusions on the quality of the IT procedures described in the research articles, they will provide preliminary evidence for discussion and a future systematic review on the reproducibility of these interventions.
