Abstract

Limited research exists regarding peer-assisted help-seeking for mental health problems. This study assesses the relationship between stigma and an individual's willingness to help a friend with mental illness. Results indicated that students were somewhat confident they could help a friend experiencing a mental health disorder. Significant differences in confidence were found based on sex, grade, holding stigma-related attitudes and outcome expectations. Findings from this study may be used by mental health professionals working with college students.
