Abstract
Two studies were undertaken following the transdiagnostic model, an evaluation protocol for stress, anxiety, and depression was designed. The first one was instrumental, in which the validity of the content of the protocol was established through interjudged harmony judgment, with nine experts in transdiagnostic evaluation, who evaluated the general aspects, the transdiagnostic variables included, the clinical problems, and the instruments proposed, using the modified Angoff technique. The rwg coefficients fluctuated between .33 and .97 showing inter-judge agreement. The indicators of severity and indulgence allowed us to infer that the evaluation of the experts was favorable. In the second study, the average scores obtained in the application of the protocol were compared to 15 victims of the armed conflict and 73 symptomatic people. There were no statistically significant differences between the means of the transdiagnostic variables between the two groups, p-values fluctuated between .09 and .95, this results allow us to infer that anxiety sensitivity, intolerance to uncertainty and positive-negative affect as transdiagnostic variables can be identified by means of the protocol regardless of the type of diagnosis or condition of victim.
