| Sumario: | The prevalence of anxiety and depression problems in adolescents is increasing and is currently an important public health problem. The aim of this study was to analyze, through a systematic review, the existing selective prevention treatments focused on the treatment of anxiety and depression symptoms in adolescents, as well as the extent of their effect and their methodological characteristics. Three international databases were used in this study: PsycINFO, Pubmed and Medline. After applying the eligibility criteria, five studies were included for review. The results revealed that the studies focused on the prevention of anxiety and depression, with great variability in terms of the methodology used and showing moderate levels of improvement only in medium to long term follow-ups. In conclusion, there is a need to expand the amount of research focusing on selective prevention for emotional problems in children and adolescents from a transdiagnostic approach that includes follow-up assessments. |
