“…High EE is a reliable psychosocial predictor of relapse in schizophrenia, mood disorders (Butzlaff & Hooley, 1998), and alcohol dependence (Fichter, Glynn, Weyerer, Liberman, & Frick, 1997). High EE also predicts poorer outcomes for patients with anxiety (Fogler, Tompson, Steketee, & Hofmann, 2007) and eating disorders (Zabala, Macdonald, & Treasure, 2009), and increased depression and anxiety in patients with medical conditions such as epilepsy (Bressi et al, 2007), diabetes (Wearden, Tarrier, & Davies, 2000), myocardial infarction (Bressi et al, 2009), and stroke (Weddell, 1987).…”
