The objective of this research was to establish the design and content validity of a Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) for Functional Analysis (FA) for a population with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). It was carried out by means of an instrumental quantitative methodology, implementing the validation technique by expert judges, with the participation of six judges with experience in clinical psychology and four in behavior analysis. Result of the evaluation of the judges, a Content Validity Index of 0.85 was obtained, allowing to establish the validity of the Functional Analysis CPG to evaluate the TDM. It is concluded that the procedures to perform FA in TDM correspond with the available theoretical-practical references and with the tradition of the behavioral approach in psychology.

Keywords : Clinical Practice Guideline; Functional Analysis; Depression; Content Design; Content Validation.
