The first of this publication (1970a) reports about sociographic and psychiatric data of 60 patients who had visited in the previous ten years the Psychiatric University Clinic in Manchester, England, and supposedly were undoubtedly diagnosed as transsexuals. The second publication (1970b) describes the same sample under the aspect of the influence that the name change had on the laboral anamnesis, dependence on social welfare, criminal convictions and so on. Because both researches do not differentiate enough between surgically treated and surgically not treated, we mention this publication as a matter of course. The partial sample of the operated (n=9) is represented further on in Hoenig et al., 1971.
