description In order to evaluate more effectively the impact of hospitalization on the post-hospital social adjustment of state hospital patients, the Worcester Scale of Social Competence was administered to 159 psychiatric patients subsequent to hospitalization and one year following discharge. Analysis of pre- to post-hospitalization change scores revealed significant sex differences, particularly with regard to role orientation and adequacy with which leisure time was utilized. A shift in life style from a somewhat physically active, outwardly oriented role to one characterized by passivity and an inwardly oriented role was noted for both sexes, but was more prominent in male ex-patients. Findings were discussed in terms of social stigma.
