A Reappraisal of Mental Health Education: a Humanistic Approach

This article presents arguments in favor of a humanistic approach to the "mental health" education of the general public. Within the context of a "demythologizing" approach, I propose that conceptual paradigms other than the medical model would be of greater benefit to the public in construing their psychological problems. Research evidence is reviewed which attests to the utility of a more humanistic, psychosocial approach.
