The author of this paper demonstrates that the sociological concept of anomie has undergone important transformations when applied in psychiatric research. It is argued that these transformations are not fully in concordance with the original theories of anomie as they were set forth by Durkheim and Merton. Two approaches in social and cross-cultural psychiatry are examined in this context. First, the concept of anomia as introduced and applied in the research of Leo Srole is discussed. Second, attention is paid to the concept of anomic depression as it was introduced by Wolfgang Jilek in his research among the Coast Salish Indians.
本文作者表明，失范的社会学概念在应用于精神病学研究时经历了重要转变。有人认为，这些转变与涂尔干和默顿提出的失范原理论并不完全一致。在此背景下，考察了社会和跨文化精神病学中的两种方法。首先，讨论了利奥·斯罗尔在研究中引入和应用的失范概念。其次，关注沃尔夫冈·吉莱克在海岸萨利希印第安人的研究中引入的失范性抑郁概念。
