Abstract
Se buscó determinar la relación entre el nivel de depresión y las estrategias de afrontamiento en familiares de personas víctimas de desaparición forzada de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Los participantes fueron 34 personas adultas de ambos géneros (4 hombres y 30 mujeres) con un rango de edad 18 a 71 años de edad, familiares de víctimas de desaparición forzada de entre 6 y 21 meses de haber acontecido el evento, a quienes se les aplicó el cuestionario de depresión de Beck validado y estandarización en población mexicana (Jurado, 1998) y el cuestionario de estilos de afrontamiento (Sandin & Chorot, 2003). Se hicieron comparaciones con los promedios de la población general de acuerdo con los grupos de edad, tiempo de desaparición del familiar y asistencia previa a psicoterapia de los participantes. El 79,4% presentaban familiares desaparecidos entre 6 y 12 meses y el 58,8% no había recibido apoyo psicológico. Los niveles de depresión de la población se presentaron en 29,4% mínimo o sin síntomas, 23,5% leve, 41,2% moderada y 5,9% severa; aunque la relación entre el nivel de depresión y los estilos de afrontamiento no es estadísticamente significativa, la focalización en la solución de problemas y la religión parecen factores protectores del nivel de depresión.
