description | The attitudes of 309 Anglo, Spanish American, and Black American subjects toward mental illness were investigated. Both the Black and Hispanic college students had significantly higher Authoritarianism scores and Blacks had higher Social Restrictiveness scores on the Opinions about Mental Illness Scale, indicating more negative attitudes toward mental patients. Benevolence scores, indicating a paternalistic attitude toward the mentally ill, were lower for Blacks than for Hispanics or Caucasians. The three groups showed no significant differences in their beliefs that mental illness was an illness like any other and in their beliefs that mental illness arises from personal experience.
Se investigaron las actitudes de 309 sujetos Anglo-Americanos, Hispano-Americanos y Negros-Americanos hacia las enfermedades mentales. En la Escala de Opiniones sobre Enfermedades Mentales, los estudiantes Negros e Hispanos presentaron un puntaje significativamente alto en el factor de Autoritarismo, los estudiantes Negros tambien tuvieron puntajes altos en el factor de Restricciones Sociales, indicando una actitud más negativa hacia pacientes mentales. Los puntajes del factor de Benevolencia, que indican una actitud paternalista hacia los enfermos mentales, fueron más bajos para los Negros que para los Hispanos y Anglo-Americanos. Los tres grupos no presentaron diferencias significativas en las creencias de que la enfermedad mental es una enfermedad como cualquiera otra y de que la enfermedad mental se origina en las experiencias personales. |
