Abstract:
:Psychological intervention studies designed to reduce cardiac morbidity are reviewed. Preliminary findings suggest that various psychotherapeutic modalities may be effective. Such studies also provide an avenue through which the physical and psychological mechanisms involved in coronary heart disease and their interactions may be clarified. Implications for clinical interventions are also discussed.
