    Mediators and Moderators of Therapeutic Change in the Unified Protocol for Women Experiencing Homelessness
    (Cognitive Therapy and Research, 2022) Rodríguez Moreno, Sara Isabel; Guillén Andrés, Ana Isabel; Tirpak, Julianne W.; Marín Martín, Carolina; Cardona, Nicole D.; Eustis, Elizabeth H.; Farchione, Todd J.; Barlow, David H.; Panadero Herrero, Sonia
    Background: The general aim of the study was to examine potential mediators and moderators in an adaptation of the Unified Protocol for Homeless Women (UPHW). Methods: We conducted a secondary analysis in a sample of 80 homeless women participated in the study: 37 in the UPHW and 43 in the waitlist control condition. The assessment before and after the program included primary outcomes (anxiety and depression) and secondary outcomes, including different mediators (positive and negative affect, well-being, and social support) and moderators (demographics, homelessness, physical function, drug and alcohol abuse). Results: The UPHW showed significant improvements on anxiety and depression outcomes at post-intervention compared to waitlist control condition. Negative affect was the only significant mediator of the relationship between the UPHW and reductions in anxiety and depression symptoms. Physical functioning was the only significant moderator of the relationship between the UPHW and depression symptoms. Conclusion: To our knowledge this is the first study examining potential mediators and moderators of change in an evidencebased psychological treatment in a population experiencing homelessness. Findings suggest that transdiagnostic protocols may be a promising approach to improving psychological outcomes in this population.

    Initial effectiveness evaluation of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders for homeless women
    (Behavior Modification, 2020) Rodríguez Moreno, Sara Isabel; Farchione, Todd J; Roca Morales, Pablo; Marín Martín, Carolina; Guillén Andrés, Ana Isabel; Panadero Herrero, Sonia
    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders adapted for homeless women (UPHW). Eighty-one homeless women participated in this single-blinded quasiexperimental clinical trial, involving up to 12 sessions of group treatment, and 3-and 6-month follow-ups. The participants received either immediate treatment with the UPHW (n = 46) or delayed treatment, following a 12-week wait-list control period (WLC; n = 35). Primary outcomes included depression and anxiety. Secondary measures comprised positive, and negative affect, psychological well-being, health perception, and social support. The UPHW resulted in significant improvement on measures of anxiety, depression and negative affect. Improvements in anxiety and depression were maintained over a 3-month follow-up period, but not at 6-month. The reliability of the clinical changes showed significant differences between UPHW and WLC for depression. Moreover, the inter-session assessment in the UPHW group showed a linear trend reduction for depression and anxiety scores along the 12 sessions. The clinical implications on the UPHW in social settings are also discussed.

    Substance use, stressful life events and mental health: A longitudinal study among homeless women in Madrid (Spain)
    (Addictive Behaviors, 2019) Guillén Andrés, Ana Isabel; Marín Martín, Carolina; Panadero Herrero, Sonia; Vázquez Cabrera, José Juan
    The objectives of this study were: (1) to assess the prevalence of substance use among homeless women; (2) to examine the correlates for drug abuse; (3) to analyze linkages between early stressful life events, drug abuse and mental health. The methodology was a longitudinal study of women homeless in Madrid (Spain), who were followed for a 24 months period. There were 138 participants interviewed at baseline and 73 participants interviewed at follow-up. We ran bivariate and multivariate analysis to examine the correlates for drug abuse. We also performed path analysis to test the interconnections between stressful life events, drug abuse and mental health. The results showed that tobacco, sedatives and alcohol were the most widely used substances in the previous month (70.1%, 48.6% and 36.2%, respectively). Women who abused drugs were more likely to be younger, report adverse experiences during childhood, have engaged in prostitution, and ever-attempted suicide. Path analysis provided support for our hypothesis that early stressful life events increased the vulnerability for subsequent negative outcomes amongst homeless women. These findings have significant implications for the understanding of how orienting prevention and intervention programs for homeless women in Spain

    Application of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders among homeless women: A feasibility study
    (Psychotherapy, 2021) Marín Martín, Carolina; Guillén Andrés, Ana Isabel; Rodríguez Moreno, Sara Isabel; Diéguez Mantecón, Sonia; Panadero Herrero, Sonia; Farchione, Todd J.
    Despite the high prevalence of emotional disorders and comorbidity among homeless women, there is a shortage of studies focused on interventions targeted at this population. This study aims to examine the feasibility of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders among homeless women, in relation to its quantitative effects on attendance, satisfaction, usefulness, emotional state and group cohesion. The trial was registered at clinicalstrials.gov as NCT04392856. We employed a one group pre-test post-test design. The program consisted of 12 group sessions of approximately 90 minutes each. Treatment was provided to 54 homeless women, who were recruited from four different shelters in Madrid (Spain). The average attendance rate was 69.44%. Participants reported high levels of satisfaction (M = 8.97, SD = 1.45; out of 10), perceived usefulness (M = 9.10, SD = 1.42; out of 10), mood state (M = 6.11, SD = 1.02; out of 7) and group cohesion (M = 6.34, SD = 0.86; out of 7). There was a significant increase in the total score across these four variables following treatment. These findings suggest that the Unified Protocol is a feasible intervention for homeless women and may be beneficial; however, further studies that include a control group and a larger sample are on progress to test its effectiveness.
