PREVALENCE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL DISORDERS IN AN INDIAN INDUSTRIAL POPULATION by H. C. GANGULI. Indian Journal of Medical Research 56, no. 5 (1968): 754-76. MIGRA TION AND MENTAL HEALTH IN INDUSTRY by K. BHAS- KARAN, R. C. SETH, and S. N. YADEV. Typescript. 18 pp. 18 tables

This section is ushered in by two studies which complement each other, the one dealing with a long-established textile mill whose employees are drawn from the local community and remain long in service, the other with a rapidly expanding engineering company whose employees are drawn from all over India. In the first study, by H. C. GANGULI, mentally disturbed employees are compared with mentally healthy employees, and in the second, by K. BHAS- KARAN and his associates, immigrant workers with locally-born ones. An epidemiological study follows. P. S. GOPINATH in his M.D. thesis surveyed a village in the south of India regarding the frequency of mental disorders. Various birth order studies on patients in mental hospitals in the East and the West have shown association between birth order, sex of the patients, and schizophrenia. A. CHAKRABORTY'S study, which concludes this section, is carried out in Calcutta and is the only study of birth order in a sizable sample of psychiatric outpatients. She fails to corroborate previous findings.
