Description

For sample adults age 18+ in 2007 who had seen a practitioner for naturopathy in the past 12 months (NATYR) and had used naturopathy to treat a specific health problem or condition (NATTREAT), NATTMANIA indicates whether the person had used naturopathy to treat mania or psychosis.

Additionally, there are 31 other conditions that both sample adults and sample children could report treating with naturopathy. For the full list of conditions, see NATTREAT.

Naturopathy is one of 16 modalities of alternative medicine that were included in the 2002 and 2007 Alternative Health Supplements. Persons could report treating mania or psychosis by 15 of those methods. (The omitted alternative method is prayer, which was included as a treatment for specific health problems in the 2002 survey only. See PRASELFEV for more information.) Analysts interested in the treatment of mania or psychosis by other alternative therapies should see NATYR for the full list of alternative medicine treatments and a summary of other naturopathy-related questions, as well as definitions.

Comparability

This variable is only available for 2007. Treatment of many other specific conditions by naturopathy was covered in the 2002 Alternative Health Supplement, but mania or psychosis was not identified as a specific condition for treatment by alternative medicine in that year.
