description |
Stigmatization is expressed by negative attitudes of different members of society, manifesting a unique way of perception about mental disorders (TM), towards people who suffer characteristics that differentiate them from others. These characteristics, at the same time of being judged by society as negative, imply damage to the same stigmatized people based on the negative values that are internalized by them. The aim was to determine and characterize the level of stigmatization of undergraduate students in Psychology in relation to serious mental disorders.
A descriptive correlational cross-sectional study was conducted. Population first to third year students of Psychology at National University of Córdoba (UNC). Selection-sample, intentional according to criteria 15% of students 2018, N = 865. A Sociodemographic Questionnaire and previous experience (CSDyEP) and Corrigan Attribution Questionnaire (CAQ), which measures stigma level were administered. Descriptive statistics of responses of study participants by year of study (mean-standard deviation-medium-mode) were analyzed; the description and association between the different variables under study and the CAQ scores were analyzed, as appropriate, t-test calculation, and Anova analysis.
It is observed that the participants show medium-moderate levels of stigma, observing a significant difference, lower, in the third year students (F= 19.31 p= .001). On the other hand, the correlation between the age of the participants and CAQ scores, expresses a negative linearrelationship at a significance level of .01, indicating that as age increases, CAQ scores decrease. In relation to previous-personal experience, it is observed that students who consulted professionals showed low levels of stigma (F = .767 p = .014). Finally, no significant association was found between stigma and other dimensions of previous experience, by family-friends (F = .223 p = .801), and by exposure-content-multimedia related to TM (F = 1,199 p = .304 ).
Stigma was observed towards mental disorders in first-and-third-year psychology students, showing visible differences by the former in most of the attributions about stereotypes defined around Help-Coercion-Perception-of fault-responsibility that falls on the person, for having or not having control of his condition. Thus, the consequences that derive from mental disorders are related to the impact of stigma on the formation of degree received, which would favor the anchoring of ideas and negative attitudes towards the people who suffer from them, impeding their approach and treatment. |
