Abstract
- This article reports on a study to know attitudes toward mental hospitals. Six groups of subjects were selected which seemed to have varying degrees of familiarity with a mental hospital setting. Group I, 22 employees kept on the intensive treatment service of the Norfolk State hospital. These employees had been exposed to an intensive training program attempting to familiarize them with personality theory, psychopathology and therapeutic attitudes toward patients on the part of a psychiatric aide. They work under the close supervision of psychiatric nurses and psychiatrists.
