Abstract
This study dealt with the comparison of the performance of homemaking activities of homemakers who had received out-patient treatment through community mental health clinics and homemakers in the general population, who had never received treatment. The purposes of this study were:
-
To compare the performance of the homemaking activities of two groups of homemakers.
-
To collect descriptive material on homemakers who had received treatment through mental health clinics.
All 60 homemakers in the sample met the following criteria: (1) between the ages of 20 and 45; (2) a homemaker, not working outside the home; (3) married, with the husband living in the same household; and (4) at least one child under the age of 18 years living in the same household.
Of these 60 homemakers, 30 had received treatment through community mental health clinics; 30 had not. A closed-form questionnaire was completed by each homemaker.
