Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: My goal was to determine the function served by ethnopsychological writings of prominent Croatian and Serbian psychiatrists, published between 1990 and 1998, when fierce interethnic strife between their communities occurred. METHOD: These writings, which deal with the national character of the Croats and Serbs, were analysed. RESULTS: The writings have served the function of detachment. CONCLUSION: Croatian and Serbian psychiatrists have been affected by ethnonationalist sentiments that have prevailed in their communities, and have shown bias in stereotyping each others' population.
