| Course contents : | We first approach the field of social psychiatry via the major principles that underlie epidemiology and via an analysis of the environment's inducing effect in the field of psychiatry. Next the course offers a survey of what communication theory and ethology have contributed to our understanding of psychopathology.
Some major problems in social psychiatry are examined such as addictions to drugs or spirits, suicide, sexual abuse on children, psychiatric disturbances, and dangerousness.
We conclude with an introduction to various structures for psychiatric care. |
