From a psychiatric consultation of women, the authors have tried to bring up the psychosocial aspects being very much influenced by the cultural context. They have discovered two profiles of these sort of women, they are either, married women under the stress of uncontrolled child-birth and are very much influenced by local tradition or are women being at a turning points of their life; adolescence, premenopause, and menopause. The authors have a well demonstrated the primordial role they take as natural (helpers) aids when a member of the family gives evidence of mental disorder.
通过对女性的精神科会诊，作者试图探讨受文化背景影响极大的社会心理因素。他们发现这类女性有两种类型，一种是处于无法控制生育压力下且深受当地传统影响的已婚女性，另一种是处于人生转折点（青春期、绝经前和绝经）的女性。作者充分证明了在家庭成员出现精神障碍时，她们作为天然（辅助）帮手所发挥的重要作用。
