We surveyed soldiers to examine differences in stigma perceptions among those in treatment for substance abuse and/or mental health problems (n = 470) and those not in treatment (n = 966). Analyses revealed that soldiers in treatment perceived greater stigma regarding mental health treatment compared with soldiers not in treatment. These findings support the notion that personnel most in need of treatment perceive greater stigma associated with these services and as a result may be less likely to pursue them. We discuss the implications of our findings for theory, research, and practice. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
