The Component and Relationship Between Explicit and Implicit Stigma Toward Mental Illness Based on Semantic Difference Scale

Abstract

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the components of the explicit and implicit stigma toward mental illness, and the relationship between them. The semantic difference method was used to develop the mental illness stigma semantic difference scale, which could measure the explicit stigma. In the meanwhile, in order to measure the implicit stigma, we developed the Single Category Implicit Association Test by using the word pairs form the stigma semantic difference scale. The results indicated that:the three-dimension model of explicit stigma has a good degree of fitting (χ²/df=2.99, RMSEA=0.075, CFI=0.918, TLI=0.902), and the three-dimension model of implicit stigma also fits well (χ²/df=2.272, RMSEA=0.071, CFI=0.857, TLI=0.833), which has the same components of the explicit stigma consisting by cognitive evaluation, emotional experience, and behavior reaction. The cognitive evaluation of explicit stigma is correlated with the cognitive evaluation of implicit stigma (r=0.436, p<0.05). However, there is no significant correlation between the explicit stigma and other dimensions of the implicit stigma.

Key words: the semantic differential scale, mental illness, the implicit stigma, the explicit stigma

摘要： 采用语义差异法编制心理疾病污名语义差异量表，用于测量外显污名，并用语义差异量表的词对作为单类内隐联想测验的材料，测量内隐污名，用这两类材料研究外显污名与内隐污名的结构及关系。结果表明：外显污名的三维度模型具有良好的拟合度（χ²/df=2.99， RMSEA=0.075， CFI=0.918， TLI=0.902）；内隐污名的三维度模型也具有良好的拟合度（χ²/df=2.272， RMSEA=0.071， CFI=0.857， TLI=0.833），且与外显污名的结构相同，都由认知评价、情感体验、行为反应三维度构成；心理疾病污名的外显认知评价与内隐认知评价存在显著相关（r=0.436），外显污名与内隐污名的其它维度之间均不存在显著相关。
