Teaching Medical Students About Adoption and Foster Care
This article reports that an elective training for medical students regarding the ways that adoption and foster care may affect patients they will see in their future medical practice is effective, perceived by students to be a valuable experience, and may contribute to good medical practice. As a follow-up to recommendations from a Massachusetts Task Force on Adoption-which identified the need to promote educational programs on adoption and fost…

Perception of Requests in Psychotherapy
Patients' stated requests for 16 types of interventions are compared with therapists' perceptions of the patients' manifest and latent requests for these interventions. Significantly, therapists' accuracy in assessing requests sharply decreases in patients seen for more than 6 months. Therapists' ratings of the questionnaire indieate that therapists believe patients have a strong, latent wish to depend on a nurturing therapist. The study raises q…
Expression of Patients' Requests in the Initial Interview
The expressions of requests of 120 patients who came to the Walk-In Psychiatric Clinic of a general hospital were examined to determine whether patients verbalized specific requests during the intake interview. As 63% of the patients verbalized a specific request, 37% emitted and 27% elicited ones, we concluded that many patients could have been more specific but felt restrained by their role. To evaluate the effect of the patients' attitudes and…
The Distancing of Emotion in Ritual [and Comments and Reply]
There is an ambivalence toward ritual in social science. On the one hand, it is seen as immensely valuable to the individual and to society. On the other hand, there is an underlying feeling that ritual is impotent. This paper presents a theory of the distancing of emotion which integrates the positive and negative orientations toward ritual. The theory links ritual to the process of catharsis of repressed emotion, which subsumes the positive ori…
Specificity of Patients' Requests in the Initial Interview
The concept of the patient's request is described in detail in relation to a negotiated approach to conduct an initial interview in a walk-in clinic and in relation to other related concepts such as patient's goals. The verbalization of specific requests of 363 patients to the psychiatric walk-in clinic of a general hospital was investigated, using a structured pre-intake interview. Although a majority of the patients (69.5%) verbalized a specifi…
Disposition decisions in a walk-in clinic
The success of a walk-in clinic in providing care without regard to social and diagnostic factors is measured in a study of 391 patients. Results indicate that acceptance or nonacceptance into the clinic system were unrelated to social class or diagnosis, although these factors did influence referrals to specific clinic resources
The walk-in patient as a 'customer
Fourteen categories of patient requests are described, on the basis of 200 interviews in a walk-in clinic of an urban general hospital. An approach is then proposed by which the patient is treated as a customer whose requests are usually legitimate and always a key part of the clinical negotiations
