Abstract:
Pitkälle edennyt muistisairaus ja hoivakotiin muuttaminen vaikuttavat monin tavoin vanhan ihmisen sosiaaliseen elämään. Sosiaalinen verkosto saattaa kaventua merkittävästi sekä muistisairauden että uuteen asuinpaikkaan muuttamisen takia. Äärimmäisessä tapauksessa tilanne voi johtaa sosiaaliseen kuolemaan, jolloin ihmistä ei pidetä enää vuorovaikutuksen arvoisena. Muistisairauteen liittyy myös vahvasti häpeäleima eli stigma. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää hoivakodeissa tehtyjen läheisten haastattelujen (N=19) pohjalta stigman ja sosiaalisen kuoleman kietoutumista yhteen. Tulokset osoittivat, että ympärivuorokautista hoivaa saavilla muistisairailla ihmisillä oli riski kokea sosiaalinen kuolema ja riskiin vaikuttivat vahvasti sairauteen liittyvät stigmat, kuten oletukset sairauden vaikutuksesta toimintakykyyn, ihmisen tarpeisiin, käyttäytymiseen sekä sosiaaliseen identiteettiin. Stigma tuli näkyväksi erityisesti sosiaalisen ulossulkemisen ja puutteellisen hoidon kautta. Muistisairaiden ihmisten ympärivuorokautisessa hoivassa tulisikin edelleen pyrkiä vähentämään muistisairauksiin liittyvää häpeäleimaa, jolloin myös sosiaalisen kuoleman todennäköisyyttä voitaisiin vähentää. Dementia-related stigma as part of the risk of social death of people with memory disorders Advanced dementia and moving to a nursing home affect the social life of an older person in many ways. The social network may become significantly narrower due to both advancing disease and moving to a new place of residence. In an extreme situation, the situation can lead to social death when the person is no longer considered worthy of interaction. In addition, dementia is strongly associated with stigma. The purpose of this study was to investigate the intertwining of stigma and social death through interviews conducted in nursing homes with family members of older persons (N=19). The results showed that people with dementia who receive round-the-clock care have a risk of experiencing social death and that the risk was strongly influenced by stigmas related to the disease, such as assumptions about the disease’s effect on the ability to function, human needs, behavior, and social identity. The stigma became visible especially through social exclusion and inadequate care. In the round-the-clock care of people with dementia, efforts should be made to reduce the stigma associated with dementia, which could also reduce the likelihood of social death.

Abstract:
The stigma is the terminal part of the carpel which receives pollen during the pollination process. Although the role of the stigmas in pollination is the same for all angiosperms, stigmas structures are very diverse. This study aimed to evaluate intraspecific, interspecific and intergeneric stigmas variability and then find differences of the stigma morphology amongst 24 holoparasitic Orobanche and Phelipanche species and provide new insights into its potential taxonomic value. This paper was also focused on selecting the best diagnostic features that would be used for future stigma analysis in other species of Orobanchaceae. These analyses were conducted with fresh, dry and fixed material using stereomicroscopy from different locations from Central Europe. Twenty-one quantitative or qualitative morphological features were analysed. This study highlights the variation of stigma morphology and characters which are useful to improve the taxonomic understanding of problematic taxa. Thus, two main types of stigmas were established, based on tested features: 1–oval, rarely hemispherical in shape, most often one-coloured with lobes separated in Phelipanche stigmas; 2–spherical to hemispherical, rarely oval, multi-coloured with partially fused or separated lobes in Orobanche stigmas. The best diagnostic features of the stigmas for distinguishing the Orobanchaceae are the type and subtype of stigma, the length and area of the stigma, the width of single lobes, the width in the middle part of the stigma, the length of upper and lower separation in the middle part between lobes and the angle between lobes in the upper and lower part. The morphological features of the stigmas are important criteria for distinguishing genera, sections and subsections, as well as related species. In this study, we present the first stigma morphological studies for the most numerous genera from the tribe Orobancheae and this paper may determine features possible to use in solving certain taxonomic problems and evolutionary relationships of the species.

Abstract:
Young black men who have sex with men (YBMSM) are disproportionately affected by HIV. Intersectional stigmas are associated with increased HIV vulnerability, and worse outcomes for YBMSM with HIV. YBMSM find sex partners through sexual networking apps, but stigma on apps has been poorly studied. We conducted cross-sectional analysis of 324 YBMSM seeking sex partners through apps to assess stigma experiences in eight dimensions compared to non-users (N = 150). We conducted detailed stratified analyses to identify granular stigma data. App users had higher median scores than non-users in perceived HIV discrimination, perceived HIV stigma, experienced sexual minority stigma, racial discrimination, and perceived homophobia. We demonstrate higher levels of intersectional stigmas among app users than non-users, but did not find an overall increase in stigma with increasing app use. Considering the prominent role of apps in YBMSM sexual networking, interventions that reduce stigma on apps are needed.

Abstract:
Internalized HIV stigma is prevalent and research on internalized HIV stigma has increased during the past 10 years. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize research on internalized HIV stigma and relationships with various health-related variables in order to better inform the development of interventions aimed at reducing internalized HIV stigma. We reviewed 176 studies with a quantitative design reporting correlates that were peer-reviewed, published in English before January 2021, drawn from PubMed, PSYCHINFO, Web of Science, EBSCO, and Scopus. Synthesis showed consistent associations between internalized stigma and negative psychological (e.g., depression, anxiety), social (e.g., lack of social support, discrimination, nondisclosure, and intersecting stigmas), and health (e.g., substance use, treatment nonadherence, negative clinical HIV outcomes) variables. We argue for a more socioecological approach to internalized stigma, with greater attention for intersectional stigmas, and more longitudinal research, if we are to effectively develop interventions that reduce internalized stigma.

Abstract:
Migraine-related stigma is a pervasive issue impacting nearly half of chronic migraine patients, with significant consequences for their quality of life, disability and mental health. Despite its profound effects, migraine stigma remains under-recognised in both clinical practice and research. This narrative review explores the three primary types of stigmas affecting migraine patients: public, structural and internalised. Public stigma involves negative societal attitudes and stereotypes that trivialise the condition. Structural stigma is reflected in policies that restrict access to necessary care and resources. Internalised stigma occurs when patients absorb these negative views, leading to self-blame and diminished self-worth. Addressing these different types of stigmas is crucial for improving the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of migraine. Educational efforts, advocacy and policy reform are essential strategies in this context. A deep understanding of stigma is vital for developing effective interventions that enhance clinical management and patient quality of life. Ultimately, reducing stigma can lead to better health outcomes and a more comprehensive approach to migraine care.

Abstract:
HIV-related stigmas contribute to disparities, and contact with HIV-positive individuals has been suggested to reduce stigma. Faith-based organizations have been recognized as important to stigma reduction efforts among African American populations; however, relatively few church-based studies have measured HIV-related stigma. This study uses baseline data (N = 1,448) from a study with 14 African American churches in Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas, to examine correlates of HIV-related stigmas among church members and community members accessing church social services using two previously validated scales that measure discomfort interacting with individuals with HIV and anticipated stigma or rejection. Knowing someone with HIV was associated with lower discomfort, even after adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics and sexual risk, HIV knowledge, previous communication about HIV at church, and mean drug and homosexuality stigmas. Knowing someone with HIV was not associated with anticipated stigma or rejection after adjustment. Contact-based interventions hold promise for reducing discomfort around people with HIV among church-affiliated populations.

Abstract:
People transitioning from incarceration to community-based HIV care experience HIV stigma, incarceration stigma, and the convergence of these stigmas with social inequities. The objective of this study is to understand intersectional stigma among people returning from incarceration with HIV in Gauteng Province, South Africa. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 42 study participants. We analyzed transcript segments and memos from these interviews. Our results showed that anticipated HIV stigma increased participants' difficulty with disclosure and treatment collection. Incarceration stigma, particularly the mark of a criminal record, decreased socioeconomic stability in ways that negatively affected medication adherence. These stigmas converged with stereotypes that individuals were inherently criminal “bandits.” Male participants expressed concerns that disclosing their HIV status would lead others to assume they had engaged in sexual activity with men while incarcerated. AIDS education and prevention efforts will require multilevel stigma interventions to improve HIV care outcomes.

Abstract:
The label of mental illness has long been recognized as one of the most powerful of all stigmas. Public stigma, the common societal reactions to people who seek help for psychological distress, can be distinguished from self-stigma, the internalized impact of public stigma. This study examined how awareness and endorsement of public stigma may influence self-stigma. It also examined how both types of stigma are connected to attitudes and intentions to seeking counseling. Awareness and endorsement of public stigma were found to predict self-stigma. Endorsement of sympathy for a person with mental illness was especially predictive of self-stigma, while endorsement of public stigma and self-stigma were independently related to attitudes to seeking counseling. Finally, attitudes were most proximally related to intentions to seek counseling. These results suggest that different aspects of stigma play different roles in influencing attitudes to seeking mental health counseling.

ABSTRACT:I apply stigma-management strategies to corporate scandals and expand on past research by (a) describing a particular type of stigma management strategy that involves accepting responsibility while denying it, (b) delineating types of stigma that occur in scandals (demographic versus character), and (c) considering the moral implications of shifting stigmas that arise from scandals. By emphasizing the distinction between character and demographic stigma, I make progress in evaluating the moral implications of shifting different types of stigma.

Abstract:

Theory suggests and research provides evidence that stigma can have a negative impact on the self-concept for individuals with severe and persistent mental illness. Labeling theory and modified labeling theory suggest that individuals who are labeled with a socially undesirable status (e.g. mental illness) may develop negative cognitions, self-perceptions and emotions as a result of the associated stigma. However, some evidence suggests that the harmful effects of stigma on self-concept may not have as strong or an enduring of an impact as labeling theories might predict. In this dissertation, I utilize longitudinal survey data of 221 individuals with mental illness to consider the role of empowerment and defensive responses that individuals use to resist the potentially negative effects of stigma. Specifically, I examine defensive strategies, such as secrecy and social withdrawal, and empowerment-oriented responses to stigma, including community activism and righteous anger, as factors that may moderate the effect of stigma on self-concept. I found limited support of the negative effect that perceived stigma has on self-concept. While I did find some evidence that stigma is negatively associated with both self-esteem and mastery, these associations were only of modest strength. There was no finding suggesting that the stigma response items moderate the relationship between stigma and self-concept, but mediating relationships are present. Further research is needed in order to better understand how stigma resistance strategies influence the varying effects of the stigma of mental illness on self-concept.

Abstract:
Stigma is a widely researched concept, with public stigma, courtesy stigma and self-stigma (or internalised stigma) frequently cited as issues for those experiencing mental health issues. Individuals with experiences of psychosis are some of the most stigmatised in society, and yet the consequences of stigma on outcomes in psychosis are unclear. The four studies presented in this doctoral thesis used mixed methods to examine the impacts of stigma on recovery from psychosis, and the psychological mechanisms through which these effects might occur. It addresses two areas lacking in sufficient research within the stigma literature: clarity in the relationship between experiences of stigma and internalised stigma; and the effects of stigma on outcomes in psychosis. In particular it examines the relationship between stigma and internalised stigma with two diagnoses on the psychosis spectrum: schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The study reported in Chapters 3 and 4, was a qualitative investigation based on interviews with 19 individuals who had received a diagnosis of either schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. The objective of the investigation was to explore how individuals processed receiving a diagnosis of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, and how perceived, experienced and internalised stigma influenced the participants’ self-perception, interactions and recovery feelings. Three overarching themes were identified which were negatively affected by stigma: reactions and responses; relationships; and recovery. The study reinforced the notion that stigma is a significant concern for service-users with diagnoses of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and was pervasive in all spheres of life; ultimately impacting on hopes for the future. An unexpected aspect of the qualitative interviews was the participants’ focus on the role of mental health services and experiences of treatment, particularly antipsychotic medication. As this is clearly an important aspect of the participants’ experiences of living with psychosis, this was written up separately, forming Chapter 4. Five overarching themes were identified: living with medication; reinforcing stigma; involvement in care; unmet needs; and positive aspects of care. The findings from this study indicated that whilst service-users made positive reports of aspects of both medication and clinical services; they had extensive concerns about the use of medication, and felt limited in their choice of alternatives. Moreover, service-users felt they lacked autonomy, were not involved in care decisions, and thought their contact with services lacked the ‘human touch’ and could be both invalidating and frustrating. The study presented in Chapter 5, used an epidemiological, longitudinal dataset (n=80) that formed part of independent research commissioned by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) under its Programme Grants for Applied Research scheme (RP-PG-0606-1086). This study aimed to examine how stigma impacts on symptomatic and subjective recovery from psychosis, both concurrently and longitudinally. We also aimed to investigate whether self-esteem and hopelessness mediated the observed associations between stigma and outcomes. In cross sectional regression and multiple mediation analyses of the baseline data, we found that stigma predicted both symptomatic and subjective recovery, and the effects of stigma on these outcomes were mediated by hopelessness and self-esteem. When the follow-up data were examined, stigma at baseline continued to predict recovery judgements and symptoms. However, self-esteem only mediated the effect of stigma on passive social withdrawal. The study reported in Chapter 6 utilised a clinical sample of 59 service-users with a diagnosis of either schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. The objectives of the study were to assess the impact of stigma on subjective recovery from psychosis, and whether self-esteem and internalised stigma mediates the observed associations between stigmatizing experiences and outcome, thus clarifying the relationship between stigma, self-stigma and recovery. Diagnosis was a persistently significant factor in all analyses, suggesting a negative effect of the term ‘schizophrenia’ on subjective recovery perceptions. In a multiple serial mediation analysis, experiences of stigma predicated subjective recovery and this effect was mediated through internalised stigma, which consequently impaired self-esteem. Findings from these studies suggest that stigma reduces individual’s perceived ability to recover, impairs individual’s perceptions of their progress in recovery, and negatively impacts on psychosis symptoms. These effects occur predominantly through the internalisation of stigma, causing devaluation of self-image and consequently reducing self-esteem. The findings further suggest that whilst the experiences of individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia are predominantly similar, ‘schizophrenia’ is an inherently negative term which affects subjective recovery perceptions even when controlling for symptoms. Finally, it is evident that help-seeking is not always helpful, and there are numerous issues with medication and mental health services that can create feelings of hopelessness and reinforce stigmatising stereotypes of severe mental illness. Overall, the findings have significant clinical implications. Internalised stigma is an important psychological mechanism in recovery, and directly links to experiences of stigma. There is a need for clinical services to work in a stigma-informed way in an effort to reduce the impact of stigma post-diagnosis, as well as the development of interventions aimed at preventing stigma from being internalised. Interventions aimed at improving self-esteem and reducing hopelessness for psychosis-spectrum service-users are needed to further reduce the effects of stigma on recovery. Moreover, there is a need for clinical services to reduce behaviours that reinforce stigma, and work collaboratively and transparently with service-users; ensuring that goals for treatment correspond between clinicians and consumers to provide a more patient-centred approach to care.

Homelessness among women is an increasing phenomena. The focus of this work is to examine common experiences and explain how homeless women interpret their circumstances. The numbers and characteristics of homeless women in recent history are examined thereby establishing the group as extremely heterogeneous in nature. Erving Goffman's classic work on stigma and the levels of individual identity, is applied to the homeless condition. A number or case studies are used to further develop and explain the meaning of the homeless state to the women involved.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Depression är en av de vanligaste psykiska sjukdomarna idag och att det är i lika grad stigmatiserat. Stigma kan kopplas till okunnighet om psykisk ohälsa. Detta gör det nästintill omöjligt för individer som lider av psykisk ohälsa, såsom depression, att kunna vara en del av samhället och yttra sina känslor utan att motta negativitet relaterat till sin sjukdom. Som ett tillägg till detta är individerna i fråga oftast ensamma, dvs de föredrar isolering än sällskapet av de som stigmatiserar dem. Detta i sin tur ger upphov till känslor av oro och hopplöshet, hämmad återhämtning och även vägran att söka hjälp och behandling. Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka hur upplevelser av stigmatisering kommer till uttryck i blogginlägg bland unga vuxna med depression. Metod: En kvalitativ metod med hjälp av textanalys utfördes. Åtta blogginlägg sammanlagt användes för att komma fram till ett resultat. Blogginlägg granskades efter relevans av vårt syfte och studie. Resultat: Tre teman uppkom under studiens gång. Dessa är: ”Rädslan att prata om sin diagnos”, ”Depression är ett skämt” och ”Stigma från professionella”. Konklusion: Individer som upplever stigmatisering från samhället som en följd av sin psykiska sjukdom upplever ovilja till återhämtning, känslor av förtvivlan, värdelöshet och illamående som kan leda till isolering och minskade möjligheter i samhället.
Background: Depression is one of the most common mental illnesses today and it is equally stigmatized. Stigma can be linked to ignorance of mental illness. This makes it almost  impossible for individuals suffering from mental illness, such as depression, to be a part of society and express their feelings without receiving negativity related to their illness. In addition to this, the individuals in question are usually alone, i.e. they prefer isolation rather than the company of those who stigmatize them. This in turn gives rise to feelings of anxiety and hopelessness, inhibited recovery and even refusal to seek help and treatment. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate how the experiences of stigmatization is expressed in blog posts among young adults with depression. Method: A qualitative study using text analysis was used. A total of eight blog posts were analysed to get the results. Blog posts were reviewed after the relevance for our purpose and study. Result: Three themes arose during the study. These are: "The fear of talking about their diagnosis", "Depression is a joke" and "Stigma from professionals". Conclusion: Individuals who experience stigmatization from society as a result of their mental illness experience reluctance to recovery, feelings of despair, worthlessness and malice that can lead to isolation and diminished opportunities in society.

Abstract:
Even before 9/11, there has been a long history of attitudes and public policies that were biased against people of Middle East descent in the United States--regardless of whether or not they are Muslim. This research uses Status Characteristics Theory (SCT) and stigma theory to examine whether there is low status or stigma associated with the Muslim religion and Middle Eastern ethnicity in the United States. By doing so, the research expands upon previous studies of stigma to explore the social psychological processes involved during interactions between the stigmatized and non-stigmatized. This study used experimental data, survey data and qualitative data collected from samples of undergraduate students using designs conceptualized specifically for this research. I conducted an experiment and a Web vignette-survey using undergraduate students from a Midwestern university. The findings of the experiment showed that that European American subjects paired with the Middle Eastern female partner not wearing a hijab and the Muslim Middle Eastern female partner wearing a hijab were influenced more and held more positive perceptions of their partners than did the subjects paired with the European American female partner. In contrast, the results of the Web vignette-survey indicate that the European American target applicant is more likely to be selected for the leadership position than either of the Middle Eastern target applicants (with or without hijab). Furthermore, the results of the social distance measures indicate that knowing someone from the Middle East (e.g. previous contact with a Middle Easterner) decreased the likelihood of social distance from the Middle Eastern target with hijab and without hijab across the vignette conditions. This suggests that there might be less of a tendency for individuals who have had personal contact and interacted with people from the Middle East to take the "us versus them" perspective, which is necessary in order to carry out the process of stigmatization.

Abstract:
Abstract According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 800,000 individuals die from suicide; every 4 seconds, one person suicide. It is considered as a major public health issue by the WHO as it is the second leading cause of death among youth (15-29 years old) (WHO, 2019). WHO defines suicide as "the act of deliberately killing oneself" and self -harm as "an act with non-fatal outcome". Recent study in Dubai showed that 78% of the suicide cases were reported among Indian nationals; and suicide rates were seven times higher in expatriate community than the nationals. Particular, among single employed expatriate males (Dervic et al. 2012). The onset of mental health problems usually goes undetected, and as a consequence, one of the most outcomes of nontreatment or late detection of mental health issues is self-harm and/or suicide. One of the barriers for not seeking professional help is stigma towards mental illnesses. Knowledge about suicide, or suicide literacy, was another factor that was negatively contributing to the help seeking behavior. Evidence showed that lowering stigma by increasing suicide literacy has a positive impact on suicide prevention. The WHO Mental Health Action Plan sat a target of lowering the incidence of suicide by at least 10% over an 8-year period (WHO, 2014). Despite the raising prevalence of suicide and its major impact on individuals, families and the communities, research on suicide in the Middle East is limited. Without proper understanding of the suicide behavior, the surround environment and analyzing the suicide decedent profiles; the public health prevention efforts would fail to target those at higher risk. Up to date, there are no literature that examines suicide in oil and gas industry. This is a narrative review paper on suicide, with great focus on literature from the Middle East. The aim of this paper is to have better understanding of suicide behavior in order to improve the help-seeking attitude among those who are at higher risk within the industry. Also, to provide the discerning theoretical knowledge to support awareness efforts to increase suicide literacy and decrease stigma. Suicide is versatile and studying suicide to conclude "one-size-fits-all" recommendation is unworkable. The vast global literature concluded that suicide literacy is inversely linked to stigma and help-seeking behavior. Some geographical areas and professions showed higher number of suicide and work-related suicide in males than females. The nature of workplace culture and societal masculine norms may negatively influence men seeking help behavior. Substantial efforts are needed to build up a focused-prevention program that would effectively impact the suicide trajectory.

To maintain equal voices in the Focus Group, 12 participants were approached (3 Psychiatrist, 3 Clinical Psychologists, 3 Medical Officers and 3 Psychiatric Nurses) but total 8 participants (2 Psychiatrists, 2 Medical Officers, 3 Clinical Psychologists And 1 Psychiatric Nurse) participated in the Focus Group. The Focus Group was conducted with the help of Assistant Moderator, for an approximate duration of 90 minutes at the setting according to the ease of the participants. Further, it was audio recorded and transcribed for the analysis. The Braun and Clarke Reflexive Thematic Analysis was diligently followed through a series of six steps such as Familiarization with the Data, Coding, Generating Initial Themes, Reviewing Themes, Defining and Naming Themes. The findings highlighted two main themes i.e., Determining Factors of Mental Health Disparity and Improving Treatment Regimen: Making Consultancy Meaningful. The first theme was centered upon three subthemes such as Lack of Mental Health Literacy, Detached Attachment and Components of Stigma and Discrimination. The second theme included Establishing Contact and Providing Psychoeducation as a subtheme. The results manifested the need for awareness-based Stigma reduction intervention for Primary Care Staff aims to provide training in Psychoeducation and normalization to reduce Depression related Stigma and Discrimination among patients diagnosed with Depression."

Abstract:
This paper focuses on a rather unexplored dimension to date of the HIV/AIDS epidemic: the resulting stigma and discrimination and its impact on the effectiveness of HIV/AIDS programs. It presents a conceptual framework that explains the interplay between stigma, discrimination and human rights. The study also provides guidelines for developing programmatic activities that situate HIV/AIDS-related stigma and discrimination within the broader social context where a variety of stigmas related to class, race, gender and ethnicity exist. Thus, the framework and the paper can be useful both to those fighting the spread of HIV/AIDS as well as to those fighting exclusion in other social contexts. This paper was prepared as a background document for a seminar entitled HIV/AIDS and Development: Challenges and Responses in Latin America and the Caribbean held at the Annual Meeting of the Boards of Governors of the Inter-American Development Bank and Inter-American Investment Corporation in March 2002.
