The authors present a first report of their attempt to develop a community oriented mental health programme. The programme which was preceded by a survey of the attitudes of some opinion leaders in the community of the rural town of Igbo-Ora, Nigeria, was followed by a community mental health education and a record of the effect on the attitude of the opinion leaders. The mental health education was immediately followed by the introduction of a psychiatric clinic at the rural health centre. The paper reports on a fifteen-month neuropsychiatric intake at the clinic and presents some case illustrations to emphasise the impact this sort of programme could have on preventive mental health care.
作者首次报告了他们尝试开展一项面向社区的心理健康项目的情况。该项目之前对尼日利亚伊博奥拉镇农村社区的一些意见领袖的态度进行了调查，之后开展了社区心理健康教育，并记录了对意见领袖态度的影响。心理健康教育之后紧接着在农村健康中心设立了一家精神病诊所。本文报告了该诊所15个月的神经精神病科接诊情况，并列举了一些病例来说明这类项目对预防性精神卫生保健可能产生的影响。
