Abstract
El terrorismo es un grave problema mundial que cada año afecta a un número muy elevado de personas. Solamente en el año 2014 se produjeron en el mundo 13.463 atentados terroristas que provocaron 32.727 muertos, 34.791 heridos y 9.428 secuestrados (National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism [START], 2015). En España el número de personas fallecidas por atentados terroristas en los últimos 45 años es de 1.220, a las que habría que sumar los miles de heridos y de familiares y allegados de personas fallecidas y heridas. Aunque la mayoría de las víctimas no desarrollarán trastornos mentales a causa de los atentados terroristas y conseguirán recuperarse sin secuelas psicopatológicas significativas, un porcentaje importante sufrirán un trastorno por estrés postraumático (TEPT), depresivo o de ansiedad (García-Vera y Sanz, 2010, 2015). Entre las víctimas directas, la prevalencia del TEPT se ha estimado entre un 10% y un 30% (DiMaggio y Galea, 2006; García-Vera y Sanz, 2015), la del trastorno depresivo mayor entre un 13,3% y un 47,7% y la de los trastornos de ansiedad entre un 6,1% y un 19,8% (García-Vera y Sanz, 2010; Salguero, Fernández-Berrocal, Iruarrizaga, Cano-Vindel, y Galea, 2011). Además, en muchos casos, tales trastornos no parecen remitir con el tiempo y parecen crónicos (García-Vera y Sanz, 2010; Morina, Wicherts, Lobbrecht y Priebe, 2014)...
Terrorism can be considered as a huge worldwide problem nowadays, affecting to a great number of people. Only in 2014, there were 13,463 terrorist attacks, in which 32.727 people were killed, 34,791 people were injured and 9,428 people were kidnapped (START, 2015). In Spain, 1,220 people have been murdered in the last 45 years, figure to which we should add up thousand of injured people, relatives and indirect victims. Although most of the victims won’t develop mental disorders due to the terrorist attacks, and they will be able of recovering without relevant psychopathological effects, an important percentage of them will suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety disorders (García-Vera & Sanz, 2010, 2015). Among direct victims, the prevalence of PTSD has been estimated in 10-30% (Gonzalez-Brignardello & Martín-Vazquez, 2004; DiMaggio & Galea, 2006; García-Vera & Sanz, 2015), prevalence of major depressive disorder in 13.3-47.7% and prevalence of anxiety disorders in 6.1-19.8% (for reviews, see García-Vera & Sanz, 2010; Salguero et al., 2011). In addition, many of these disorders do not disappear with the passage of time, and they become chronic (García-Vera & Sanz, 2010; Morina et al., 2014)...
