KOHLSDORFI, Marina  y  COSTA JUNIOR, Áderson Luiz. Triadic communication in pediatrics: literature review. Temas psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.24, n.2, pp. 609-629. ISSN 1413-389X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.9788/TP2016.2-13Pt.

Triadic communication in pediatrics has been focused in the last 20 years, considering the relevance of understanding this process in order to improve health assistance to children and adolescents. The main purpose of this systematic literature review was to analyze 118 papers related to this theme, published between 2000 and 2012. Results show a regular distribution of studies along this period, with prevalence of descriptive researches that included quantitative methodology. Literature emphasizes that communication promotes better adherence to healthcare, improvement in symptoms and clinical responses, collaborative behaviors and adaptation to treatment, however the focus on triadic communicative skills during graduation is not sufficient. The child is excluded from the interaction and tailored demands for information must be a priority. More studies are needed, concerning psychosocial interventions in longitudinal design, which may contribute to understand communicative processes in pediatric settings.

Palabras clave : Literature review; pediatric communication.
