Compulsory community treatment orders are a feature of most advanced mental health systems without convincing experimental evidence of benefits. Is it ethical to continue without such evidence ? This paper argues that the responsibility for ensuring it is collected lies as much with Parliament as with researchers.
强制社区治疗令是大多数先进心理健康系统的一个特点,但却没有令人信服的实验证据证明其益处。在没有此类证据的情况下继续推行是否合乎道德?本文认为,确保收集证据的责任,议会和研究人员同样责无旁贷。
