Complex processes of sex bias and sex-role stereotyping continue to detract from the quality of mental health services to both sexes, but particularly to women because of their disadvantaged status. Understanding how such processes can simultaneously create barriers to service access and facilitate inappropriate treatment is essential to ensuring quality mental health services. Ameliorating the problems of women as providers and consumers in the mental health delivery system will require a sophisticated understanding of the nature of those problems and a firm commitment to creative solutions. The ethical mandate to address the institutional structures of inequality extends to all persons who are part of the mental health delivery system.
性别偏见和性别角色刻板印象等复杂过程持续损害着针对两性的心理健康服务质量，尤其是对女性而言，因为她们处于弱势地位。了解这些过程如何既能同时造成服务获取障碍，又能助长不恰当治疗，对于确保高质量的心理健康服务至关重要。改善女性在心理健康服务提供系统中作为提供者和消费者所面临的问题，需要深入了解这些问题的本质，并坚定致力于创造性的解决方案。解决不平等制度结构的道德使命延伸至心理健康服务提供系统中的所有人员。
