[Psychological analysis of factors for determining an attitude toward patients with epilepsy].

Very important is an analysis of epilepsy in wider context--not only clinically--due to its chronic course and high incidence. A problem of non-medical consequences due to the disease and related to social functioning of epileptic patients is widely discussed. The author attempted to carry out psychological analysis of all factors determining an attitude toward epileptic patients, basing on the results of research on a role of social determinants in epilepsy.
