Paper Abstract:
|
Emotional disorders (ED) are one of the most common health problems worldwide. People suffering from ED often use maladaptive emotion regulation strategies and have low coping behaviour that contribute to the presence of symptoms. It is important to develop strategies to promote coping and emotion regulation in people exposed to high levels of stress. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can help us in this task. The Internet-based programs are effective. We have developed an Internet-based intervention based on classical CBT techniques which also includes positive psychological strategies to improve coping and positive mood. One hundred and twenty four participants who were having minimal, mild or moderate depression symptoms and experiencing at least one stressful event in their lives that produces interference, were randomly assigned in two groups: a group was assigned to the intervention program and a waiting list control group. The aim of this work is to present the evolution in the scores of the interference pre to post and the statistical differences between groups. |
