Seeking mental health services has been stigmatized for years due to numerous factors and can prevent individuals from getting the help they need. Professional help-seeking might be more stigmatized in groups that adhere to strong collectivistic values because people are seen primarily as a part of a whole rather than an isolated individual; behaviors (like seeking psychological help) affect and reflect on the family and community. In contrast, those who adhere to stronger collectivistic values might not value professional psychological help that elevates the individual the way traditional, western psychotherapy does. By understanding the stigma and professional help-seeking attitudes and behaviors of people with collectivistic values, we may be better able to help reduce stigma and promote help-seeking. I will recruit up to 300 Indian-American and 150 European-American college students who will complete one of two versions of an online questionnaire study. I will compare Indian- and European-American student’s answers on their attitudes toward mental health services and their degree of self-stigma for seeking help through the Mental Health Seeking Attitudes Scale (MHSAS; Hammer et al., 2018) and Self-Stigma of Seeking Help Scale (SSOSH-3; Vogel et al., 2006). In addition, I will measure the degree to which participants received positive or negative messages about seeking psychological help from their family and whether they previously attended therapy. I hypothesize that European-Americans will have more favorable help-seeking attitudes than Indian-Americans. This difference will be only partially explained by stigma. Furthermore, regardless of race, those who received more favorable messages about psychotherapy while growing up and who previously attended therapy will have better attitudes and less self-stigma than those who received negative messages or have not previously attended therapy. Results from this study could direct future efforts to tailor psychotherapy in a way that is accessible and acceptable to Indian-Americans.
