Abstract
Following two years of monitoring of the Andalusia study, this article presents the results of a programme of family intervention in schizophrenia based on the reduction of expressed emotion, the reduction of family stress and the increase in relatives” knowledge about schizofrenia. The programme had already showed its effectiveness on a one year follow-up. Twenty five families participated in the present study (an attrition rate of 4% with respect to the first year of monitoring). The relapse rate in the experimental group was 0% versus 40% in the control group. The effectiveness of the programme over the two year period can, therefore, be sustained. The data of this study are compared with those of other family intervention programmes in schizophrenia the report on monitoring over two years.
