The PRiSM Psychosis Study investigated the outcomes of community mental health services for epidemiological representative cases of psychosis in London. The results presented in the other studies are interpreted. Concludes that the evidence supports a community-orientated rather than a hospital-orientated approach and there is little difference between the community mental health team models.

Aims to summarise the relevant research on rate of psychiatric morbidity within the general population, and define specific populations at high risk of mental disorder. The theories put forward to account for these inequalities are considered, noting the limitations of the data they are based on and highlighting their implications for the data required to facilitate further research. Inequalities in access, provision and appropriateness of services are also discussed. Makes policy recommendations for reducing these inequalities at national, regional and district levels.
