| Sumario: | Emotional regulation-based transdiagnostic interventions provide positive but limited evidence regarding efficacy with people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In the present study, 10 participants living with HIV with emotional disorders completed a five-session transdiagnostic group intervention to improve their emotional regulation skills (Unified Protocol). Changes at pre-treatment, post-treatment and three-month follow-up were explored at the population (mean-rank) and the individual level (reliable change index). Compared to pre-treatment, participants improved significantly in anxiety, depression, negative affect and quality of life. Changes were maintained at the three-month follow-up. Emotion regulation, particularly the confusion factor, improved when comparing pre-treatment with the three-month follow-up. At the three-month follow-up, the percentage of normalized scores was the largest in maladjustment (70%), followed by depression, negative affect, and lack of control (50%). All participants indicated high treatment satisfaction and perceived benefits. These promising results suggest that brief emotion regulation interventions might be feasible and effective in the public health settings for people living with HIV suffering emotional disorders |
