1114 people were investigated by a sociological interview. A representative subgroup got a medical check-up mostly by psychiatrists, a few of them by the family doctors. It revealed a refusal-group of 28% out of 625 persons. Our medical data did not confirm the rate of morbidity from 10 to 20% of the elderly. Whereas the sociological date of the refusal-group maybe identify the expected crisis-population so that we did not gain enough information for planning a psychogeriatric service by this field-study.
通过社会学访谈对1114人进行了调查。一个具有代表性的亚组主要由精神科医生进行了体检，其中少数由家庭医生进行。结果显示，在625人中，有28%的拒绝组。我们的医学数据并未证实老年人发病率为10%至20%这一说法。而拒绝组的社会学数据可能确定了预期的危机人群，因此通过这项实地研究，我们没有获得足够的信息来规划老年精神病服务。
