Abstract

Matched samples of mental hospital staff and high school students completed mental health questionnaires in Germany and America. The results were factor analysed. One factor concerned the role of the psychiatrist. The role of the psychiatrist in each culture seems to reflect basic cultural conceptions of mental disorders. Reference to two earlier papers indicates that patients, staff, and public share these basic conceptions and these conceptions affect patient-staff relationships.

摘要

德国和美国的精神病院工作人员及高中生的配对样本完成了心理健康问卷。对结果进行了因子分析。其中一个因子涉及精神科医生的角色。精神科医生在每种文化中的角色似乎反映了对精神障碍的基本文化观念。参考两篇早期论文表明，患者、工作人员和公众都认同这些基本观念，且这些观念影响医患关系。
