One hundred ambulatory adults of each gender were interviewed on a downtown street in Washington, D.C. Each ranked for prestige an alphabetical listing of 10 mental health disciplines and further indicated whether they would prefer to consult for an emotional problem a "male," "female," or "either" professional in each of the fields. The top three prestigious professions were found to be Psychiatrist, Psychoanalyst, and Psychologist, respectively, while the bottom choices were Paraprofessional Worker, Psychiatric Social Worker, and Social Worker. Discussion considered several factors possibly contributory to these results, and suggestions for further research were offered.
在华盛顿特区的一条市中心街道上，对100名成年男女进行了访谈。他们对按字母顺序列出的10种精神健康学科的声望进行了排名，并进一步表明，在遇到情感问题时，他们更倾向于咨询每个领域的“男性”“女性”还是“任意性别”的专业人员。结果发现，声望排名前三的职业分别是精神科医生、精神分析师和心理学家，而排在最后的选择是辅助专业人员、精神科社会工作者和社会工作者。讨论考虑了可能导致这些结果的几个因素，并提出了进一步研究的建议。
