Self-stigma in individuals with mental illness

Research output: Contribution to conferencePoster

Abstract

This study investigated the predictors and consequences of the cognitive content and habitual process of self-stigma among individuals with mental illness. Findings showed that familial expressed emotion and experienced professional discrimination predicted self-stigma content and process, both of which, in turn, predicted poorer objective and subjective outcomes.
