Asian-Americans: Use of Counseling and Psychiatric Services On A College Campus

Sue, Derald Wing; Kirk, Barbara A.

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 22, 1, 84-86, Jan 75

Asian-American students in the 1966 freshman class were studied over a four-year period to determine usage of mental health services. Asian-Americans underutilized the campus psychiatric service but significantly overutilized the Counseling Center. Possible reasons related to the Asian-Americans' subcultural values explain these findings. (Author)
