61 hospital attendants participated in an in-service training program designed to provide experience in human relations with the expectation that the well-being of patients in the hospital would be affected by changes in roles and attitudes. Ss were administered the Opinions About Mental Illness Questionnaire before and after a 20-wk. training period. Significant differences were observed on four of the five scales, suggesting that attitudes of custodial mental health personnel can be modified except for authoritarian matters
