Ninety-one undergraduates who had been referred to the Southampton University psychiatrist and matched controls who had not sought psychiatric help were followed up yearly for five years by questionnaire. The response rate for cases and controls was poor, but the difference in psychiatric morbidity was large. At least 26 of the patients subsequently consulted a doctor for emotional problems as against five of the controls; 17 of the patients were again referred to a psychiatrist, but none of the controls. It is concluded that students who are referred to a psychiatrist during their University course have a much higher rate of psychiatric morbidity in the five years after they leave University than do students who have not been so referred.
91名曾被转介至南安普顿大学精神科医生处的本科生以及未寻求过精神科帮助的匹配对照组，通过问卷调查每年随访一次，持续了五年。病例组和对照组的回应率较低，但精神疾病发病率的差异很大。至少26名患者随后因情绪问题咨询了医生，而对照组只有5人；17名患者再次被转介至精神科医生处，而对照组无人如此。结论是，在大学期间被转介至精神科医生处的学生在毕业后五年内的精神疾病发病率比未被如此转介的学生高得多。
