Abstract

GMH poster competition
This meta-analysis examined the effect of mental health stigma on psychopathology risk factors for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. There was no significant difference across studies conducted in high versus low structural stigma countries. Notably, very few studies have been conducted in countries endorsing high mental health stigma.
