ResumoIn investigations in general practice it has been invariably found that the prevalence of neurosis in women is higher than in men. Logan (1960) found that housewives without family responsibilities had the lowest patient-consulting rate for psychoneurosis, and married part-time workers with family responsibilities had the highest rate. Tonge, Cammock, Winchester and Winchester (1961) found no significant difference in prevalence rates of neurosis between housewives and employed women.
