Clinical and demographic characteristics of voluntary and involuntary psychiatric inpatients.

P F Tremblay1, P R King, G R Baines.   

Abstract

Voluntary and involuntary psychiatric inpatients were compared on demographic, social and clinical characteristics. Chi-squared tests of independence revealed significant differences in age and financial support based on status at admission. No significant differences were found with respect to diagnostic category. It was concluded that demographic, social and clinical characteristics do not clearly discriminate between voluntary and involuntary inpatients.
