What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06384196). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: University of Barcelona. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 138 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Depression, Anxiety. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: Identity-Based Transdiagnostic Therapy (IBTT); BEHAVIORAL: Unified Protocol. Primary outcome measures: Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS-21) , DASS-21 will be administered at baseline, at 16 weeks (at completion), and at three-month follow-up.. Brief summary: Depression and anxiety are the most prevalent mental disorders among both the general population and young adults, and transdiagnostic treatments for these patients are mostly based on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Based on common (transdiagnostic) principles of treatment (e.g., emotional exposure), these approaches have proliferated and demonstrated their efficacy in comparison to disorder-specific treatments. Although there are a few transdiagnostic approaches for children and adolescents, it was not possible to not find anyone targeting young people. For this reason, the investigators proposed the Identity-Based Transdiagnostic Therapy (IBTT) as a new treatment modality ideally created to address the challenge of improving the outcomes of psychotherapy for young adults with anxiety and/or depression. The IBTT is a psychological treatment for emotional disorders specifically designed for the youths in terms of their attitudes to treatment (attractiveness, engagement), and highly personalized to their construal of self and others. This project will allow testing the hypothesis that a novel brief psychotherapeutic intervention, IBTT, will be more efficacious in the treatment of the anxiety and/or depression of young adults than the well-established CBT-based Unified Protocol.
