After the analysis of 80 articles obtained in WOS, Scopus, Psicodoc, Dialnet, and ISOC databases, it was found that most analysis units appear in type C and D publications in adult population and in theoretical studies, being the prevailing subject different psychotherapeutic strategies, especially Dialectic-Behavioral and Transference-Focused Therapy, although with increasing trends of new procedures applied to BPD population.
