Incestuous experiences within homosexual populations: a preliminary study.

The incidence, frequency rates, and effects of both homosexual and heterosexual incestuous experiences within lesbian and male homosexual populations are examined. Twenty-nine female homosexuals and 54 male homosexuals from diverse demographic backgrounds were administered a 16-page anonymous questionnaire designed to capture a wide range of demographic, personality, life history, and attitudinal information. Differences in family characteristics that exist between individuals who have experienced nuclear family incest, extended family incest, and those who have never experienced incest are investigated. Differences that exist between the two populations, incest and nonincest, were also studied.

Deinstitutionalization: a microcosmic perspective.

Changes have taken place in caring for chronic patients due to deinstitutionalization, and these changes have affected the services rendered by the community mental health centers. Statistical data on dehospitalized patients treated in a community mental health center located in the South Central Bronx are examined to determine trends in service utilization by these patients. Demographic characteristics of this population are also examined. Issues surrounding treatment and rehabilitation of chronic mentally ill patients are critically explored and recommendations for changes in the care of the chronically mentally ill patient are offered.
