Mental Health Literacy and Professional Psychological Help-Seeking Attitudes Among Primary Healthcare Workers: The Mediating Role of Social Support and Mental Illness Stigma
This study underscores the critical role of mental health literacy, social support, and mental illness stigma in shaping primary healthcare workers' attitudes toward professional psychological help-seeking. Strengthening these factors can enhance their mental health outcomes and encourage more proactive help-seeking behavior. Implementing targeted interventions in training programs to reduce stigma and promote social support could improve help-seeking behaviors and overall mental health within healthcare settings.
