Expressed emotion (EE) refers to the criticism, hostility, and emotional over-involvement family members may display toward an individual diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder. Recent research has explored EE in relation to suicide risk, yet the association between EE and recurrence of suicidal behaviors remains understudied. The present paper provides an illustrative review of the links between EE, psychiatric symptom recurrence, and suicide risk, proposes a new conceptual framework -- the Expressed Emotion-Suicidal Behavior Recurrence model (EE-SBR), and provides recommendations for future research and clinical practice within the fields of suicidology and family psychology. Researchers and clinicians are encouraged to consider the role of the family and EE as they relate to relapse prevention efforts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
