摘要:
Between 1981 and 1995, approximately 5 million people from either Mexico, Cuba, Central America, or South America immigrated to the United States. Some regional studies have suggested that as Hispanic immigrants become acculturated to American society, their risk of mental illness increases sharply. This study examined the lifetime risk of psychiatric and substance use disorders among U.S. Hispanic subgroups and the specific role of nativity, parental nativity, language preferences, and other sociodemographic characteristics as risk factors for these disorders. The study used the National Comorbidity Survey (NCS), a national probability sample of 8098 U.S. adults aged 15 to 54. Selected DSM-III-R psychiatric diagnoses were collapsed into eight categories. When compared with non-Hispanic whites, Mexican-Americans were less likely to have any psychiatric disorder. After multivariate adjustment, acculturation items predicted greater risk of having any DSM-III-R disorders for Mexican-Americans and "other" Hispanics and greater risk of having a substance abuse disorder for Puerto Ricans, among other significant relationships. The results suggest that there is likely to be an increasing prevalence of psychiatric and substance use disorders among Hispanics that may be attributable to increasing levels of acculturation among the more than 5 million recent immigrants from Latin America.

摘要:
This analysis employs a national panel study to examine the relationship between marital transition and depression among mothers within the framework of selection and causation processes. The data come from the two-wave, longitudinal National Population Health Survey (NPHS) by Statistics Canada collected in 1994 and again in 1996 focusing on women between 20 and 65 years of age with children living at home (N= 2169). Compared with mothers who remain married, mothers making the transition into single-parenthood had a significantly higher rate of major depression at Time 1, which increased, but not significantly, at Time 2. This suggests that a selection effect may explain the elevated levels of depression among mothers experiencing a marital disruption. Rates of depression among single-parent mothers making the transition into a marital relationship did not decrease significantly between waves nor did the rate differ significantly from stable single-parent mothers at Time 1 or Time 2, suggesting that movement into marriage is not a protective factor.

摘要:
The relationship between childhood behavioral disturbance and comorbidity for adult psychiatric disorders has not been sufficiently investigated. Subjects of this report (N= 185) were offspring of parents with schizophrenia or affective disorder and of normal parents from the New York High-Risk Project. Data on childhood behavior at the mean age of 9.5 years were obtained in a parent interview at initial assessment in 1971-72. Adulthood outcomes were assessed through standardized interviews, and life-time axis I diagnoses were based on Research Diagnostic Criteria. Subjects with comorbidity for axis I disorders exhibited significantly more behavioral problems as children, compared with those who developed either one or no psychiatric disorder in adulthood. This association was not biased by gender or parental diagnosis of psychiatric disorder. The findings emphasize that psychiatric comorbidity can be traced back to childhood and underline the importance of longitudinal observations in psychiatric research.

摘要:
This study considered the role of dissociation and personality fragmentation as psychological factors that might distinguish borderline and personality disorder (BPD) patients, and that might explain why BPD patients have higher levels of other psychiatric symptomatology than those with other personality disorders. Two groups of personality-disordered patients (personality disorders including BPD; personality disorders other than BPD) completed measures of dissociation, personality fragmentation, and psychiatric disturbance. The BPD group had higher levels of a number of aspects of psychiatric symptomatology. Those differences were mediated by aspects of dissociation. Personality fragmentation differentiated the two groups but was not related to the higher levels of other aspects of psychiatric disturbance. Treating the syndrome of BPD may depend on addressing both dissociation and personality fragmentation. In contrast, reducing the level of comorbid psychiatric disturbance in BPD is likely to be more strongly dependent on reducing levels of different aspects of dissociation. Psychotherapeutic techniques and targets for achieving such change are discussed.

摘要:
We explored the possibility of carrying out clinical research on the Internet. To do so, we compared psychometric and demographic variables between two groups of sufferers of depersonalization disorder, one recruited via the Internet, the other from outpatients attending the Depersonalization Research Unit. No differences were found in demographics or features of depersonalization. Those seen in the clinic were, however, significantly more depressed. We then explored the answers to several questions posted on a depersonalization bulletin board by a second group of Internet users. Useful information on symptoms, precipitants, and treatment was gained. It is concluded that the Internet could become a valuable tool in clinical psychiatric research.

摘要:
We investigated in a nationwide sample of the Finnish general population (869 women and 773 men) whether there were gender-differences in associations between religious attendance and mental well-being. Respondents were asked during telephone interviews about sociodemographic variables, frequency of religious attendance and social contacts, and perceived social and family support. Mental health was screened by means of the 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12). More women than men (62%vs.50%) attended religious events, and there was a corresponding difference in percentages relating to regular religious attendance (17%vs.10%). Regular religious attendance was most common among those over 65 years of age. In women, minor mental disorder (GHQ-12 score ≥ 3) was more common among those who never attended religious events than among the others (25%vs.16%). In men there was no difference. In women, religious attendance associated positively with social contacts, in men with happy family life. In multivariate analyses an independent positive association between religious attendance and absence of minor mental disorder was found in women (adjusted OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.12 to 2.24) but not in men. These results suggest that there may be gender-differences in associations between religious attendance, social and family life, and mental health.

摘要:
The issues of confidentiality and boundaries cause ethical dilemmas for psychotherapists. We investigated whether therapists have ethical attitudes to confidentiality and boundaries that are unique to their professional group compared with lay persons and whether gender or professional characteristics are associated with these attitudes. Clinical vignettes capturing ethical dilemmas regarding confidentiality and boundaries were presented to 93 psychotherapists of different professional backgrounds (professional group) and 55 staff and students from the fields of law and the humanities (lay group). In general, the lay group showed a greater tendency to maintain confidentiality than the professional group. Regarding boundaries, the majority of psychotherapists were against initiating any sexual relationship with current patients, former patients, students, or supervisees; the differences between the groups in this area were statistically significant. The vast majority of therapists (96.7%) disapproved of accepting money in advance compared with only 54.4% of the lay group. Analysis of the psychotherapists by professional background revealed that for the majority of the vignettes, there was no difference in attitude to confidentiality and boundaries between psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers.The present study shows that therapists have different ethical codes from nontherapists regarding the issues of boundaries and the treatment contract. Therapists are stricter than nontherapists regarding issues of boundaries but less strict regarding issues of confidentiality, and there are some minor differences in the attitudes to these issues among different types of therapists.
