Abstract

Presents data supporting the contention of D. W. Edwards et al (see record 1979-26947-001) that poor clients will use and receive the same services as nonpoor clients, at least in a community mental health center setting. Data do not uphold G. W. Albee's (1977) arguments against including psychotherapy in national health insurance.
