description The flood suffered by the town of Mendiolaza in 2015, located in Sierras Chicas in the province of Cordoba, Argentina, is subject to be classified as a catastrophe (Arcos González & Castro Delgado, 2015) due to the fact that it provoked not only important economical and social problems in the area, but also serious illnesses in the population. Therefore, not only the experience of such event but also the exposure to the risk of living it once again produce psychological discomfort. From this hypothesis, the proyect to which a survey was applied to a sample of individuals affected by the floods was developed. The survey included a group of factors in relation to the feeling of vulnerability and psychosocial variables (sex, age, level of education) and, in the second part of the same instrument, a short version of the Epidemiological Questionnaire on Mental Symptomatology (CESIM) was taken. From the data gathered from the group of factors, information related to the feeling of vulnerability, exposure to risk and other specific psychosocial variables was obtained. Through the CESIM, it was possible to access the frequency and distribution of the mental symptomatology of the population being studied. The flood suffered by the town of Mendiolaza in 2015, located in Sierras Chicas in the province of Cordoba, Argentina, is subject to be classified as a catastrophe (Arcos González & Castro Delgado, 2015) due to the fact that it provoked not only important economical and social problems in the area, but also serious illnesses in the population.

La inundación sufrida en 2015 en la localidad de Mendiolaza, situada en las Sierras Chicas de la provincia de Córdoba (Argentina), es susceptible de ser catalogada como catástrofe (Arcos González & Castro Delgado, 2015) debido a que no sóloprovocó importantes problemas económicos y sociales en la zona, sino que también causó serias afectaciones en la población. Es decir, tanto la vivencia de dicho acontecimiento comola exposición al riesgo de vivirlo nuevamente, producen malestar psicológico. A partir de esta hipótesis se desarrolla el proyecto desde el cual se aplicó, a una muestra de personas afectadas por las inundaciones, una encuesta que incluyó un bloque de ítems en relación a: sentimiento de vulnerabilidad y variables psicosociales (sexo, edad y nivel educativo). En una segunda parte de ese instrumento, se tomó una versión breve del Cuestionario Epidemiológico de Sintomatología Mental (CESIM). A partir de los datos recogidos a través del bloque de ítems se obtuvo información acerca del sentimiento de vulnerabilidad, exposición al riesgo y otras variables psicosociales especificadas. Y, por medio del CESIM, se accedió a la frecuencia y distribución de la sintomatología mental de la población en estudio.
