“…The other RCT seeks to study the differential efficacy of a transdiagnostic IBT that includes a treatment component to enhance positive affectivity in a community sample. In this protocol, the contents are organized in 16 modules ( Díaz-García et al, 2017 ). These two studies have three important characteristics in common: 1) Both treatments target ED, namely, major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not otherwise specified mood and anxiety disorders; 2) Both treatments are based on the transdiagnostic approach to the treatment of ED ( Barlow et al, 2004 ) for which several studies have shown its the efficacy and effectiveness in improving symptomatology, functionality, quality of life, and emotion regulation skills of patients with emotional disorders in both naturalistic and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) ( Dear et al, 2011 , Farchione et al, 2012 , Johnston et al, 2011 , Titov et al, 2013 ); and 3) Both treatment protocols are web-based, self-administered treatments with minimum contact/support from a therapist that consists in a weekly phone call lasting 5 to 10 min to each participant.…”
