Higher-Educational Psychiatric Disorders

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Management Intelligence, 2008, pp 107-109 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The academic life is still portrayed as civilized, gentle, and privileged in much of the media. This, despite report after report of academic stress and breakdown as research-trained and selected dons are forced to embrace change from students evaluating them more than they ever did, as well as the new prospect of having to screen candidates for the educational background of their parents. Many are now falling to a whole range of newly discovered academic maladies.
