[Sexuality and psychiatric institution (inquiry into a Breton hospital).]

The author presents the results of a research on sexuality that took place in an hospital of Brittany. The verification of the six proposed hypothesis has uncovered the fact that sexual problems are a component of mental illness and that the patient is deprived by the institution of his procreator right. Sexuality exists in spite of the prohibition. The treating personnel elects not to notice the transgression as long as it stays within acceptable limits. In fact, the institution puts forward the same antisexual values as society.
