摘要

背景：与英国白人相比，非洲裔精神病患者的临床结果更差，治疗途径也更消极。因此，重要的是调查造成这种差异的潜在因素。目的：探讨非洲裔英国精神病患者对精神分裂症的信念与从精神卫生服务中获得帮助的态度之间的关系。方法：34名自述有精神病经历的被试分别填写《精神分裂症疾病知觉问卷》和《精神分裂症服务求助态度问卷》。结果：对症状和治疗控制一致性的信念是对从精神卫生服务亚量表获得帮助的态度的唯一显著个体预测因子。结论：研究结果的意义包括使用文化上合适的教育资源和产生文化上知情的、协作的心理公式，以帮助指导治疗选择。

Mental health beliefs and help-seeking in an African descended sample with experiences of psychosis.

Background: African-descended groups with psychosis have poorer clinical outcomes and more negative pathways to care than White-British groups. It is therefore important to investigate potential contributing factors to this disparity.

Aims: To explore the relationships between beliefs about schizophrenia and attitudes towards accessing help from mental health services in an African-descended UK-based sample with psychosis.

Method: Thirty-four participants with self-reported experiences of psychosis completed the Illness Perception Questionnaire for Schizophrenia and the Inventory of Attitudes towards Seeking Help from Services.

Results: Beliefs about coherence of symptoms and treatment control were the only significant individual predictors of attitudes towards accessing help from mental health services subscales.

Conclusions: Implications of the findings include the use of culturally-appropriate educational resources and the generation of culturally-informed, collaborative psychological formulations to help guide to guide treatment choice.
