Abstract

The origins of patients’ perceptions of coercion during short-term psychiatric hospitalization are varied. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the characteristics of patients that are associated with higher levels of perceived coercion and to determine whether these perceptions remain stable one year after admission. One hundred and twenty-five patients were recruited within three days of admission to the acute units at the Alfred Hospital Inpatient Psychiatry Department, Melbourne, Australia. In the initial recruitment phase, patients’ perceptions of coercion, psychiatric symptoms and interpersonal style were assessed using the Macarthur Admission Experience Scale, the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale-18 and the Impact Message Inventory–Circumplex. Admission status (voluntary versus involuntary) and demographic characteristics were also assessed. Follow-up assessments were conducted approximately one year later. Results suggest that a significant but small positive correlation existed between perceived coercion and a Hostile–Dominant interpersonal style at initial recruitment. Females reported significantly higher perceptions of coercion than males, but admission status and severity of psychiatric symptoms were unrelated to perceived coercion. Despite perceptions of coercion appearing to lessen over time, there is a need for specific interventions for these patients during their admission to hospital. There was a statistically significant decrease in perceived coercion over time.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
