Bathtub Test

During a visit to the mental hospital , one newspaper reporter asked the
Director 'How do you determine whether or not a patient should be admitted
to the hospital.'

teaspoon , a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him to empty the bathtub.'

or the teacup.'

'A normal person would pull the drain plug. Well....... Do you want a bed
near the window?'
