The main objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the UP applied in a group format compared with individual Treatment as Usual (TAU), in improving specific ED symptoms. METHODS: The study sample (n=243) was a subset of participants of a randomized controlled trial conducted in the Spanish public health system. Specific symptoms assessed from pre-treatment to the six-month follow-up were: depressive, agoraphobic, generalized anxiety, panic, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Personality dimensions and quality of life were also measured. RESULTS: There were statistically significant changes after the UP in all the study variables (0.44 = d = 1.35). Changes in depressive symptoms, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and perceived quality of life were superior in the UP. CONCLUSIONS: The results support the efficacy of group UP for improving both transdiagnostic dimensions and specific ED symptoms, as well as quality of life, through the public health-care system. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA-FEDER/Construyendo Europa desde Aragón info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/FEDER/Otra manera de hacer Europa info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/ISCIII/PI17/00320 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 3.6 2022 PSYCHOLOGY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 39 / 147 = 0.265 2022 Q2 T1 1.097 2022 Psychology (miscellaneous) 2022 Q1 6.4 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Navarro Haro, María Vicenta Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-9726-3250 Peris Baquero, Óscar Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-2437-1207 Suso Ribera, Carlos 4009 740 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
