    Abstract
    The purpose of this study is to provide interested persons in the State of Kansas with a brief descriptive account of the historical development of institutions in Kansas and to provide descriptive comparisons of Kansas and national resident patients in state mental hospitals over an eight year period for two specific age groups. The first group is comprised of resident patients of all ages and of those under 24 years of age who were institutionalized at the end of each fiscal year (June 30) as resident patients in the three state mental hospitals of Osawatomie, Topeka and Larned from 1961 to 1968. This descriptive comparison will be accomplished by comparing selected demographic characteristics (age, sex and diagnoses) of these youths with the same data reported nationally by the National Institute of Mental Health. Secondly, a more indepth account will be presented of the group of hospitalized youths in Kansas between 5 and 19 years of age for the year 1970, on selected demographic characteristics of age, sex, diagnoses, county of residence and last school attended. This indepth account will be accomplished by comparing these patients on selected characteristics and hospital placement, i.e., Osawatomie, Topeka, or Larned.
