title: Lawyers' use of psychiatry: II.
abstract: The authors surveyed 124 attorneys by mail questionnaires regarding their use of and attitudes toward psychiatric referrals. They found that, compared with a similar survey in 1965, fewer attorneys made referrals, but those who did made more. As in 1965, domestic problems were the usual reasons for referral in 1975; however, substantially more referrals of criminal defendants were made in 1975.
