The goal of this study was to assess and compare patients' and staff members' attitudes about what rights hospitalized psychiatric patients should have.
A 31-item inventory, developed for the study, for assessing attitudes about what rights hospitalized psychiatric patients should have was used with 122 hospitalized psychiatric patients and 35 staff members in the same hospital.
Patients were less likely than staff to express the view that involuntary hospitalization, the use of force or physical restrictions, or the compromise of confidentiality is justified. There were no significant differences in attitudes toward patients' rights to obtain information about their illness and treatment and their right to refuse treatment.
The differences in attitudes found in the study highlight the importance of considering multiple facets of patients' rights and the extent to which attitudes about patients' rights are associated with each facet.
本研究的目的是评估和比较患者及工作人员对住院精神科患者应拥有哪些权利的态度。
使用为该研究编制的一份包含31个条目的问卷,对同一医院的122名住院精神科患者和35名工作人员进行调查,以评估他们对住院精神科患者应拥有哪些权利的态度。
与工作人员相比,患者不太可能认为非自愿住院、使用武力或身体限制、或泄露机密是合理的。在对患者获取病情和治疗信息的权利以及拒绝治疗的权利的态度上,没有显著差异。
该研究中发现的态度差异凸显了考虑患者权利多个方面的重要性,以及对患者权利的态度与每个方面的关联程度。
