Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of stigma on QOL of patients with mental disorders.Methods By using Link stigma series scale and schizophrenic quality of life scale,we assessed and analyzed 406 psychiatric patients′stigma and QOL, as well as the correlation and influence between them.Results The score of perceived devaluation-discrimination dimension of the stigma scale had positive correlation with total score of QOL,score of psycho-social dimension and score of motivation and energy dimension (P <0.05).The scores of challenge dimension and separation dimension in the stigma scale had positive correlation with motivation and energy dimension of the QOL scale (P <0.05).Regression analysis showed that stigma did not have influence on QOL of patients with mental disorders.Conclusion Stigma in psychiatric patients has no significant influence on QOL,but correla-tion relationship exists between them.The higher score of perceived devaluation-discrimination dimension,challenge dimension and separation dimension of stigma scale,the poor QOL the patient would have.
