“…With research in this area burgeoning, the differential effects of EWB and RWB are being increasingly investigated, and more recent studies suggest a greater role for EWB in positive psychological outcomes than RWB. For instance, EWB is associated with improved quality of life, better psychological adjustment, and lower levels of hopelessness, despair, and suicidal ideation/behavior in a variety of patient populations (Edmondson, Park, Blank, Fenster, & Mills, ; Fischer et al., ; Kleftaras & Katsogianni, ; Lamis, Wilson, Shahane, & Kaslow, ; Lamis, Wilson, Tarantino, Lansford, & Kaslow, ).
