Gender Differences in Public Attitudes Toward Bipolar Disorder in the Workplace
Social work in mental health(2022)
摘要
This study examines gender differences in attitudes toward individuals with Bipolar Disorder (BD) at work. Participants (N = 628) randomized to a vignette completed the Attitudes toward Individuals with Bipolar Disorder in the Workplace Scale (social acceptability, competency, reliability, advancement, job demotion/loss). Multivariable regressions found men rated co-workers with BD as more socially acceptable, while women rated co-workers as more competent and less likely to lose their job/be demoted. Mediational analyses assessing whether a personal diagnosis of a mood disorder mediates attitudes toward co-workers with BD and gender found 8-17% of a relationship between gender and attitudes is attributed to a participant diagnosis of depression or BD. These results inform educational/intervention strategies targeting gender-specific attitudes toward individuals with BD.
