Report cites sex bias in psychiatric treatment
A national agenda on women's mental health cites biased research and training oriented to men. The joint APA Women and Health Roundtable and Federation of Organizations for Professional Women released the report at a breakfast with Rep Patricia Schroeder and Rep Mary Rose Oakar. It notes higher depression in women, but greater antisocial behavior and alcohol abuse in men, and that women receive most visits but a large share of mood drugs prescribed by non specialist physicians.
