This study investigates the relationship between stigma and care-seeking for depression. One hundred-seventeen people in a primary care facility and an urban public health clinic completed the Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Help Scale and the Attribution Questionnaire. The belief that depression was under personal control was associated with less receptivity toward seeking care, and greater anger toward the person with depression. Pity was associated with seeking professional care and with a desire to help. Dangerousness was unrelated to care-seeking. Gender and setting influenced the results-for men and urban respondents there was no relationship between responsibility and care-seeking.
本研究调查了耻辱感与抑郁症患者寻求治疗之间的关系。117名来自初级保健机构和城市公共卫生诊所的人员完成了《寻求专业帮助态度量表》和《归因问卷》。认为抑郁症受个人控制的观念与寻求治疗的接受度较低以及对抑郁症患者的更大愤怒有关。怜悯与寻求专业治疗以及帮助的愿望有关。危险性与寻求治疗无关。性别和环境影响了结果——对于男性和城市受访者来说，责任感与寻求治疗之间没有关系。
