Imminent threat presented by patients admitted to mental hospital was studied. The research data came from a questionnaire filled out by psychiatrists on duty at the time of admission. The study was carried out during 3 months in seven mental hospitals. It concerns only 1001 patients assessed by psychiatrists as imminently threatening. These assessments were compared with Lessard's criteria of dangerousness. Two types of assessments were made; type A--consistent with Lessard and type B not-consistent. Results obtained indicate that every third assessment belonged to type B i.e. could be seen as imminently threatening. Our findings show that psychiatrists taking part in the study were inclined to unduly broad or unduly discretional assessment of imminent threat.
对入住精神病院患者所构成的紧迫威胁进行了研究。研究数据来自入院时值班精神科医生填写的问卷。该研究在七家精神病院进行了3个月。研究仅涉及1001名被精神科医生评估为存在紧迫威胁的患者。这些评估与勒萨德的危险性标准进行了比较。进行了两种类型的评估:A型——与勒萨德标准一致,B型——与勒萨德标准不一致。所得结果表明,每三次评估中就有一次属于B型,即可能被视为存在紧迫威胁。我们的研究结果表明,参与研究的精神科医生倾向于对紧迫威胁进行过度宽泛或过度随意的评估。
