The microcomputer as a community mental health public information tool.
A discussion of the role of public information programs in community mental health is followed by a review of various traditional public information techniques. A microcomputer system is described as a tool for public information. A field study of the system is reported in which the results indicate the system's success in creating interest in mental health information and assessing consumer awareness of mental health services and principles. The computer's capability for teaching this information is not substantiated, but appears promising.
