“…Intraclass interrater reliability coefficients for SR have ranged from .70 to .96 (Endicott & Spitzer, 1972;Fenton, Tessier, & Streuning, 1979). This score has differentiated quite well normals vs outpatients vs inpatients (Endicott & Spitzer, 1972), and fairly well high-vs low-functioning inpatients (Herz, Endicott, Spitzer, & Meznikoff, 1971).…”

The expression of positive vs negative attitudes in response to the 40 stems of the Rotter Incomplete Sentences Blank (RISB) can be scored and summed to an Overall Adjustment Score (OAS). By extending the validation of the OAS to adult psychiatric outpatients, this study demonstrates for the first time the incremental validity of a personality test over a simple self-rating. The RISB and six tests of adjustment were administered to 41 recent admissions to psychotherapy in two rural clinics. The tests of adjustment were selected to cover the two domains of symptoms vs function and the three methods of interview schedule vs objective inventory vs therapist ratings. Their scores were combined into an adjustment composite. The OAS related strongly to the composite in univariate regression, and moderately in hierarchical regression after covarying demographics, intelligence, social desirability, and self-ratings of adjustment. Construct validity was good, and incremental validity at least fair.

A number of projects have used home treatment (HT) for severely mentally ill people in recent years. This paper intends to define HT and show the main differences between it and other forms of psychiatric community service, present the existing evidence for HT, and discuss eligibility criteria. Studies about HT's efficacy in treating severely mentally ill adults were identified by electronic (MEDLINE, PsycLIT) and manual search. Six studies met these inclusion criteria. Compared to inpatient treatment, HT was equally or more efficacious in respect to reduction of symptom distress, social (re-)integration, and patient and carer satisfaction. Furthermore, direct costs for HT were often lower than for inpatient care. However, the number of relevant studies is limited and knowledge on the long-term effects of HT is sparse.
