Abstract
This paper examines relationships between true and treated prevalence of mental illness in a community by examining the use of mental health and other professional services for emotional problems and the relationship of this use to the individual's diagnostic status. The results are based upon a third round of 515 interviews in a longitudinal community study in New Haven, Connecticut, and demonstrate the high use of nonpsychiatric physicians by persons with a psychiatric diagnosis.
