Community mental health ideology and personality preferences of social work students.

105 women social work graduate students completed the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule (EPPS) and the Community Mental Health Ideology (CMHI) Scale. Scores on each of the 16 EPPS variables were divided into deciles and into quartiles for comparisons with extreme scores on the CMHI Scale. Results revealed that high CMHI scorers showed significantly lower needs for deference and order personality variables, and indicated that the degree of commitment to community mental health ideology is significantly related to personality preferences.

Community mental health ideology scale: social work norms.

The present study reports mean scores obtained by two groups of professionals deeply involved in the community mental health movement on the Community Mental Health Ideology Scale. Professional social workers and social work graduate students were not included in the scale makers original criterion group. The high mean scores obtained by these groups led the authors to the conclusion that social workers show the potential for a strong role in the "third phase" of mental health care and delivery.

Analytical response of polychlorinated biphenyl homologues and isomers in thin-layer and gas chromatography.

Except for pure synthetic polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), estimation methods of PCB by thin-layer and gas chromatography with electron capture detection give comparable results. Both give a good estimate of the true mass of a biologically modified residue, but where mostly hexachlorobiphenyls and above make up the residue, the estimate will be up to 50% too high. The Coulson detector does not, in our hands, yield comparable results with modified residues: the reason for this difference is not clear at present.

Mental health ideologies of psychiatric nurses.

Students in graduate programs of psychiatric nursing across the United States were surveyed in terms of their individual commitment to three major mental health ideologies--community mental health ideology, psychotherapetic ideology, and somatotherapeutic ideology. In contrast to earlier research, which had indicated that psychiatric nurses are ideologically neutral, it was found in the present study that as a group these 386 young psychiatric nurses were more committed to community mental health ideology than to the other two psychiatric orientations measured.
