title: [Awareness and perception of psychiatric services in Québec.].
abstract: This study analyses the knowledge and perception of psychiatric services, mental health and the mentally ill among a sampling of 990 people selected throughout the province of Quebec. The results indicate that the population is still badly informed on several aspects of mental health services, and that it still shows considerable intolerance towards former mental patients, particularly in situations where there is greater degree of social contact.
