In this article, the authors review the literature on surveys pertaining to threats and assaults on psychiatrists and report the results of a questionnaire sent to Oregon psychiatrists. Although the responding psychiatrists were experienced clinicians, they appear to have had relatively little life experience with aggression. Assaults and threats were frequent in their careers, occurred across a variety of clinical settings, and involved a wide range of patients. The authors discuss specific strategies for psychiatrists to minimize the effects of patient threats and assaults and suggest ways in which organized psychiatry can help with the danger and sequelae of patient violence.
在本文中，作者回顾了有关针对精神科医生的威胁和攻击的调查文献，并报告了向俄勒冈州精神科医生发送问卷的结果。尽管回复问卷的精神科医生都是经验丰富的临床医生，但他们似乎在现实生活中遭遇攻击行为的经历相对较少。在他们的职业生涯中，攻击和威胁行为很常见，发生在各种临床环境中，涉及各类患者。作者讨论了精神科医生将患者威胁和攻击的影响降至最低的具体策略，并提出了精神科组织可以如何应对患者暴力的危险和后果的建议。
