Abstract
Discusses reasons why the Spanish-speaking/surnamed population receives mental health care of a different kind, of a lower quality, and in lesser proportions than any other ethnically identifiable population. This underutilization cannot be explained because of the substitution of either folk medicine or faith healing. Race and social class of the therapist seem to affect the patient's response to treatment, and middle-class values are often misapplied to lower-class patients. 3 models for improved services to this population are described: a professional adaptation model, a family adaptation model, and a barrio service center model.(39 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
