OBJECTIVE
To examine the role of stoicism, self-efficacy and perceived stigma in predicting help-seeking by rural residents, for mental health problems.
METHOD
A cross-sectional community survey was conducted with a sample of 467 rural residents (58% female), who completed self-report questionnaires assessing current levels of symptomatology, disability, perceived stigma, self-efficacy, stoicism, attitudes towards and experience of seeking help for psychological problems.
RESULTS
Overall, 27.6% (n=129) of respondents had sought help from a general practitioner and/or mental halth professional for psychological problems or a mental health issue. More women than men reported having sought such help. Lifetime help-seeking for a psychological problem or mental health issue was positively associated with higher levels of distress and lower levels of stoicism and, to a lesser extent, lower levels of self-efficacy.
CONCLUSIONS
Efforts to improve help-seeking by rural residents for mental health problems should focus on understanding and addressing attitudes, such as stoicism which act as barriers to help-seeking.
目的
探讨坚忍克己、自我效能感和感知污名在预测农村居民心理健康问题求助行为中的作用。
方法
对467名农村居民（58%为女性）进行了横断面社区调查，他们完成了自我报告问卷，评估当前症状水平、残疾程度、感知污名、自我效能感、坚忍克己、对心理问题寻求帮助的态度和经历。
结果
总体而言，27.6%（n = 129）的受访者曾因心理问题或心理健康问题向全科医生和/或心理健康专业人员寻求帮助。报告寻求此类帮助的女性多于男性。一生中因心理问题或心理健康问题寻求帮助与更高水平的痛苦、更低水平的坚忍克己以及在较小程度上更低水平的自我效能感呈正相关。
结论
改善农村居民心理健康问题求助行为的努力应集中在理解和解决诸如坚忍克己等作为求助障碍的态度上。
