我们评估了精神健康治疗恐惧程度的衡量标准是否与过去的精神健康治疗历史和/或当前治疗状态有关。正在或不打算开始心理治疗的学生SS对恐惧测量和心理痛苦测量做出了反应，他们还回答了关于他们的心理健康寻求治疗史的问题。分析表明，增加的治疗恐惧与服务消费不足的历史追溯相关，并从横向上与非临床治疗状态相关。我们的结论是，治疗恐惧与寻求治疗的决定有关，并建议未来的研究侧重于描述这些变量的因果关系，以及治疗恐惧在治疗依从性和行为改变中可能发挥的作用。
We evaluated whether a measure of mental health treatment fearfulness is associated with past mental health treatment history and/or current treatment status. Student Ss who either were or were not about to begin psychotherapy responded to the fear measure and a measure of psychological distress, and they also answered questions about their mental health treatment-seeking history. Analysis indicated that increased treatment fearfulness was associated retrospectively with a history of service underconsumption and cross-sectionally with a nonclinical treatment status. We conclude that treatment fears are associated with treatment-seeking decisions and suggest that future studies focus on delineating the causal relation of these variables and on the role that treatment fears may play in treatment compliance and behavior change.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
