Knowledge, awareness, and attitudes toward epilepsy in Palestine: a cross-sectional study
While knowledge and awareness remain moderate, attitudes toward people with epilepsy in Palestine are broadly supportive. Educational level is a consistent determinant of improved epilepsy literacy. Targeted public health interventions, especially for men and those with less formal education, can build on existing social acceptance to reduce stigma and promote better care.
