Two hundred and eleven male street prostitutes were interviewed and administered the SCL 90-R psychological symptom checklist. When compared to nonpatient normals, male prostitutes exhibited significantly higher levels of psychopathology. However, when compared to adult psychiatric outpatients, male prostitutes exhibited significantly less psychopathology on all symptom dimensions of the SCL 90-R except paranoid ideation. The male prostitutes' elevated scores on the psychological symptom checklist may reflect their response to an often dangerous and chaotic environment. However, it is as likely that their psychological functioning leads them to this particular milieu.
对211名男性街头妓女进行了访谈，并让他们填写了症状自评量表90项修订版（SCL 90-R）心理症状清单。与非患者正常人群相比，男性妓女表现出明显更高水平的精神病理学症状。然而，与成人精神科门诊患者相比，除偏执观念外，男性妓女在SCL 90-R的所有症状维度上表现出的精神病理学症状明显较少。男性妓女在心理症状清单上的高分可能反映了他们对通常危险和混乱环境的反应。然而，也有可能是他们的心理功能使他们置身于这种特殊的环境中。
