To assess explicit and implicit attitudes toward mental illness of undergraduate students and explore associated variables. : Year 1-4 undergraduate students from a large Canadian university ( = 382). : Participants completed demographics, the Opening Minds Scale for Healthcare Providers, and an Implicit Association Test. Two-tailed independent and paired-samples -tests, and ANOVA were performed with significance level at < .05. : About 67.5% self-reported having experienced a mental illness and 31.2% had been diagnosed. Lower explicit stigma was associated with females, those with a history of mental illness diagnosis, and those who have had a close relationship with someone experiencing a mental illness. Faculty of Social Sciences students had significantly lower explicit stigma scores than Faculty of Engineering students. Implicit stigma did not show significant associations with any factors. : A high proportion of undergraduate students experience mental illness. Increased exposure and experience were associated with reduced explicit stigma.
评估本科生对精神疾病的显性和隐性态度,并探索相关变量。:来自加拿大一所大型大学的一至四年级本科生(n = 382)。:参与者完成了人口统计学信息、医疗保健提供者开放心态量表和一项内隐联想测验。进行了双尾独立样本和配对样本t检验以及方差分析,显著性水平设定为p <.05。:约67.5%的人自我报告曾经历过精神疾病,31.2%的人被诊断过。较低的显性污名与女性、有精神疾病诊断史的人以及与有精神疾病经历的人有密切关系的人相关。社会科学学院的学生显性污名得分显著低于工程学院的学生。隐性污名与任何因素均未显示出显著关联。:很大比例的本科生经历过精神疾病。更多的接触和经历与较低的显性污名相关。
