Self-Stigma of Mental and Physical Health

Mental Disorder Clinical Trial

Official title:
Self-Stigma of Mental and Physical Health: Developing and Validation of a Universal Self-Stigma Scale (USSS)

Clinical Trial Summary

People with mental disorders often suffer from self-stigmatization. Self-stigma is associated with several negative outcomes such as low quality of life, lower rates of help-seeking as well as poorer treatment adherence. However, a lot of questionnaires only focus on specific mental disorders. There is no valid measurement which can be used for all kinds of mental disorders. Furthermore, much less is known about self-stigma in people with organic diseases. Only little attention has been given to those who may experience self-stigma because of their physical condition. A main reason for this may be the lack of a valid measurement of self-stigma among people with physical health issues. Therefore, the aim of this study is to develop and validate a self-report scale which is capable to do both - measuring self-stigma among people with all mental disorders and among people with physical health issues.

Clinical Trial Description

Items are derived from the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) and the Behaviors from Intergroup Affect and Stereotypes (BIAS) Map. Psychometric evaluation includes testing the reliability (intern consistency, test-retest reliability) and validity (exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, construct validity incl. convergent and discriminant validity, criterion-related validity). Participants take part in an online survey. They answer general questions about their mental and physical health condition and complete measurements of quality of life, mental health, depression, public stigma, expected stigma, self-stigma, intention to seek help and actual help seeking (behavior). ;
