Psychotherapies seem to be especially effective in low- and middle-income countries
Youth psychotherapies appear to be about twice as effective in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) compared to high-income countries. However, disproportionately little research on youth psychotherapies has been conducted in LMICs; 90% of the world’s youth live in LMICs, but only 5% of randomized controlled trials of youth psychotherapies have been conducted in LMICs to date. Therefore, there is great need for more research on psychotherapies for youth in LMICs and for funding directed to LMIC-based investigators, clinicians, and organizations. We do not know why psychotherapies appear more effective in LMICs, but discovering why could help to identify ways of improving youth psychotherapies worldwide.
