Abstract

A sample of psychiatrists (n = 72) working in 20 community mental health centers (CMHCs) representative of the organizational and catchment area characteristics of operating Centers were queried as part of a larger study (n = 595) of community mental health worker roles. It was found that psychiatrists were like other staff in perceived organizational expectations of social activism but were significantly lower in perceived personal/professional role activism and role discrepancy. Unlike other staff, psychiatrists' levels of activism and discrepancy were unaffected by personal characteristics or organizational and catchment area characteristics of the CMHCs. It was concluded that the psychiatrists' unwillingness to assume any but the most modest community activist stances may hinder the development of the CMHC movement.

摘要

作为一项关于社区心理健康工作者角色的更大规模研究（n = 595）的一部分，对在20个社区心理健康中心（CMHC）工作的一组精神科医生（n = 72）进行了询问，这些社区心理健康中心代表了运营中心的组织和集水区特征。研究发现，在对社会行动主义的组织期望方面，精神科医生与其他工作人员类似，但在个人/职业角色行动主义和角色差异方面明显较低。与其他工作人员不同，精神科医生的行动主义和差异水平不受个人特征或CMHC的组织和集水区特征的影响。研究得出结论，精神科医生除了采取最适度的社区行动主义立场外不愿承担其他立场，这可能会阻碍CMHC运动的发展。
