Resumen

El propósito de adoptar un enfoque transdiagnóstico en psicopatología es comprender las comunalidades entre trastornos mentales clínicamente diferentes sobre la base de un rango de dimensiones y procesos etiopatogénicos compartidos. Las intrusiones mentales no deseadas (IM) y sus consecuencias funcionales se han propuesto como dimensiones de síntomas en el Trastorno Obsesivo-Compulsivo (TOC), el Trastorno Dismórfico Corporal (TDC), la Hipocondría (HIP) y los Trastornos Alimentarios (TA). Este artículo resume y actualiza los datos disponibles sobre el potencial valor transdiagnóstico de las intrusiones mentales y sus consecuencias funcionales en los cuatro trastornos mencionados. Se presentan, primero, los resultados sobre la universalidad y dimensionalidad de IM con contenidos característicos de cada trastorno; segundo, los datos sobre las IM como dimensiones de síntomas comunes en el TOC y los TA; por último, se aporta información sobre una investigación propia cuyo objetivo es poner a prueba la hipótesis del carácter transdiagnóstico de IM obsesivas, dismórficas, hipocondríacas y alimentarias.
