Abstract

Examined the impact of teaching quality and person first language (PFL) on students’ attitudes and behavioral intentions regarding a professor with mental illness (MI). A factorial MANOVA revealed significant effects for teaching quality (high, low) and labeling language (no MI, MI first, nominative form of PFL, possessive form of PFL).
