Abstract
About a third of variance in a year's incidence of recurrent herpes labialis (RHL) was predicted from combinations of psychological and sociometric variables. Measures of social assets and psychological discomfort added significant predictive information when used in combination with measures of susceptibility to RHL (antibody titer or frequency of RHL determined by history).Keywords
