我们分析了 25 项将表达情绪 (EE) 与精神分裂症联系起来的研究的汇总数据。我们获得了 17 项研究的原始数据集，并使用了其余研究的已发表数据。这为我们提供了来自世界各地的 1346 个病例。 EE 与复发的关联是压倒性的，并且无论地理位置如何，这种关联都存在。男性和女性的 EE 预测能力几乎相同。虽然与高 EE 亲属的频繁接触会增加复发的风险，但在低 EE 家庭中情况恰恰相反。药物治疗和 EE 与复发独立相关，因此 EE 状态与处方决定无关。我们的研究结果通过对数线性分析得到证实。
We analysed aggregate data from 25 studies linking Expressed Emotion (EE) and schizophrenia. We had access to original data sets from 17 studies, and used published data from the remainder. This provided us with 1346 cases from around the world. The association of EE with relapse was overwhelming, and was maintained whatever the geographical location. The predictive capacity of EE was virtually identical in men and women. While high contact with a high EE relative increased the risk of relapse, the opposite was true in low EE households. Medication and EE were independently related to relapse, and thus EE status has no bearing on the decision to prescribe. Our findings were confirmed using log-linear analysis.
