The Chinese versions of the Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness Scale-Rheumatoid Arthritis (ISMI-RA), Social Support Rating Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Medical Coping Style Questionnaire were administered to assess the internalized stigma, social support, self-esteem, and coping styles, respectively. The Pearson correlation test or Spearman rank correlation was then used to analyze the correlation between these measures.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Overall, 69.5% participants reported high level of internalized stigma. The average age of the 174 participants was 52.67 ± 12.24 years, with 87.36 per cent female patients. The mean ISMI-RA score was 54.49 ± 9.62, and the ISMI-RA subscale with the highest average score was alienation. The Pearson's correlations show that internalized stigma was positively associated with the coping styles of avoidance (<i>r</i> = .212, <i>p</i> &lt; .01) and acceptance (<i>r</i> = .560, <i>p</i> &lt; .01), and that internalized stigma was negatively associated with the coping styles of confrontation (<i>r</i> = −.479, <i>p</i> &lt; .01), social support (<i>r</i> = −.570, <i>p</i> &lt; .01), and self-esteem(<i>r</i> = −.512, <i>p</i> &lt; .05).</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The high level of internalized stigma in RA patients suggests that we should develop interventions to improve patients' self-esteem, encourage them to adopt positive coping styles, and gain more social support for them, so as to alleviate their internalized stigma.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50265,"journal":{"name":"Japan Journal of Nursing Science","volume":"21 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141972253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
