  • Title: Psychological and legal aspects of artificial insemination (A.I.D.): an overview.
    Author: Waltzer H.
    Journal: Am J Psychother; 1982 Jan; 36(1):91-102. PubMed ID: 7081520.
    Abstract:
    The psychological and psychodynamic determinants and end-products of A.I.D., both of a positive and negative nature, are reviewed. Studies do not support the contention that a decision to participate in artificial insemination, in itself, is indicative of an emotional disturbance. There is no justification for the automatic requirement of psychological or psychiatric examinations of couples requesting this procedure. Some legal issues are reviewed.
