Godoy00aEffects of schizophrenic family intervention on the Emotion Expressed (EE) components  a307-3160 v63 aBeing related to relapse, the family expressed emotion (EE) is attempted to be decreased in most of the current programs of family intervention in schizophrenia, in order to limit the relapses of the patients. Although most of these programs succeed in reducing the relapses rate, the EE index does not present significant decreases in almost none of these studies, and when it does is because of the decrease of one of the components of the EE, and not the most relevant in many studies: the emotional overinvolvement. Not any family intervention programs inform of reductions of critical commentaries (another component of the EE and more important than the previous in almost all the studies) after the treatment. This work proposes a possible explanation of this fact and provides the data of the study of Andalucía which support this hypothesis.  a1134-7937  a2174-0437
