A review of the literature on the personalities, mental health, and professional status of psychiatrists was the basis of a questionnaire designed to assess perceptions of these characteristics by psychiatrists themselves and by their medical colleagues. The 374 physician respondents were divided into two groups, psychiatrists and nonpsychiatrists, and beliefs and perceptions were compared between the two groups and with findings from the research literature. Results revealed some differences in opinion between psychiatrists and nonpsychiatrists, most notably concerning the mental health of psychiatrists. This was also the area in which the literature was least conclusive. Findings indicated, however, that physicians across specialties have a positive overall opinion of psychiatrists and their professional worth, and that psychiatrists see themselves as healthy, effective, and useful practitioners.
一项关于精神科医生的性格、心理健康和职业地位的文献综述，是一份问卷的设计基础，该问卷旨在评估精神科医生自身及其医学同事对这些特征的看法。374名医生受访者被分为两组，精神科医生和非精神科医生，并对两组之间的信念和看法以及研究文献中的发现进行了比较。结果显示，精神科医生和非精神科医生之间存在一些意见差异，最明显的是关于精神科医生的心理健康。这也是文献中最缺乏定论的领域。然而，研究结果表明，各专业的医生对精神科医生及其职业价值总体上持积极看法，并且精神科医生认为自己是健康、高效且有用的从业者。
