Attitudes toward people with epilepsy among Arabic and Vietnamese residents of Berlin – A cross-cultural comparison
Arabic and Vietnamese residents of Berlin differed in some specific facets of the attitude toward PWE. Attitudes were generally more positive than in surveys done in several Arabic countries and Vietnam. Higher levels of education predicted more positive attitudes in both groups calling for specific knowledge transfer to the general population on epilepsy and persons affected.
