1	The issues faced by mentally ill gays and lesbians Shockey, Tracy Lee 01 January 2002 (has links) This project is significant to social work because it addresses a topic that has not been given much attention. This particular population has not been studied much and we know little about the issues that are important to mentally ill gays and lesbians. Even in schools of social work this particular topic is frequently overlooked, and when it is discussed it is usually in relation to another topic.

2	A descriptive study of the relationship between age and problems expressed by women seeking out-patient mental health services Rodgers, Linda M., Carey, Joyce 01 January 1978 (has links) The purpose of this study is to provide a descriptive analysis of the problems presented by a specific group of women seeking out-patient mental health treatment and to relate these problems to the ontogenetic (age-related) developmental issues presented in a study of the literature. The researcher’s involvement in this area developed from interest in current literature on adult development, and a personal commitment to life-long growth and acceptance of the inherent changes. In order to investigate whether developmental issues exist for this group of women, and if so to describe them, two distinct age groups--the decades of the 20's and the 40's--were chosen as the focus of this study.

Eight families, each with an asthmatic child between the ages of 8 and 15, were included in this study. In each case, the parents were interviewed and completed a quantitative measure, the Family Assessment Device, The results indicated that each family has a unique way of functioning and of integrating the child's asthma into its lifestyle.
