Emotion, Disclosure, & Health
James W. Pennebaker
Investigators have verified that talking or writing about traumatic events can alleviate distress, improve immune function, and lead to a healthier experience of life. But the links among trauma, emotional expression, and health have been difficult to study. In Emotion, Disclosure, and Health, influential researchers in psychology and anthropology present a much-needed cross-disciplinary and cross- cultural examination of the disclosure-health relationship. Why does translating upsetting events into words promote mental and physical health? How can our understanding of this process lead to clinically useful and cost- effective applications? Emotion, Disclosure, and Health addresses these and other questions, as it illuminates the path from secrecy to psychopathology.
