  • Stigma of mental illness : comparison of patients' and students' attitudes in Slovenia = Stigma duševne bolezni : primerjava stalisč bolnikov in študentov v Sloveniji
    Strbad, Mateja ...
    It is known that the consequences of stigmatization towards people with severemental illness reflect themselves in a lack of self-esteem and consequently in low level of initiatives to improve one's ... status in the community. The burden of stigma may cause denial of participation in the stigmatized group. So fag; there were few studies to compare the mentally ill patients' perception of the other mentally ill with the perception of futureprofessionals in mental health services. We have compared stigmatizing attitudes of students with attitudes of patients with severe mental illness. The patients expressed higher stigmatization scores towards people with severemental illness than the students. Negative attitudes of patients with severe mental illness towards their own group present a serious problem. Actions are needed to improve their identification and reduce the perceived need for exclusion from their group.
