Tradicionalmente, relacionouse a severidade sintomatolóxica dos transtornos depresivos co uso de estratexias de afrontamento centradas no ánimo. De igual maneira, un afrontamento evitativo encontrouse vinculado aos transtornos de ansiedade. O obxectivo deste traballo é analizar as diferentes estratexias de afrontamento e a súa relación coa intensidade da sintomatoloxía mixta ansioso-depresiva. Os resultados amosaron que os pacientes con sintomatoloxía leve presentaban un estilo de afrontamento activo e facían un maior uso das estratexias de: Reavaliación positiva, Conformismo, Desenvolvemento persoal e Distanciamento. Porén, os pacientes con sintomatoloxía de maior intensidade fixeron un maior uso de: Reacción depresiva, Supresión de actividades distractoras, Negación, Desconexión comportamental e Resposta paliativa.
