背景：与对精神病患者危险性的广泛研究相比，很少有研究调查他们的受害行为。目的：本研究的目的是记录希腊严重精神疾病门诊患者的受害情况，并将其与健康对照进行比较。方法：采用半结构化访谈法对150例严重精神疾病门诊患者和一组匹配的健康对照者进行访谈。这记录了前一年的受害和歧视事件。采用Logistic回归模型检验人口统计参数对受害和歧视的影响。结果：在本研究中，59.3%的患者和46.0%的对照组（p = 0.02）报告至少遭受过一次犯罪行为的受害者，52.0%的患者和24.0%的对照组（p < 0.001）报告在前一年遭受过歧视。与对照组相比，患者更有可能报告自己是任何形式的受害者（OR = 1.85, 95% CI = 1.07-3.21），攻击/威胁(OR = 4.62, 95% CI =(2.32-9.19)和歧视(OR = 3.34, 95% CI =(2.1-5.62)。此外，与对照组相比，患者报告在攻击/威胁犯罪中经历了更高的痛苦（p = .03）。结论：严重精神疾病患者比一般人群更容易成为犯罪行为的受害者和遭受歧视。
Background: In contrast to extensive research on psychiatric patients’ dangerousness, very few studies have examined their victimization. Aim: The aim of our study is to record reported victimization of seriously mentally ill outpatients in Greece and compare them with healthy controls. Method: We interviewed 150 severely mentally ill outpatients and a matched group of healthy controls using a semi-structured interview. This recorded incidents of victimization and perceived discrimination during the previous year. Logistic regression models were used to examine the influence of demographic parameters on both victimization and discrimination. Results: In this study 59.3% of patients and 46.0 % of controls (p = .02) reported being victims of a criminal act at least once and 52.0% of patients and 24.0 % of controls (p < .001) reported experiencing discrimination during the previous year. Patients, in comparison to controls, were more likely to report being victims of any kind of victimization (OR = 1.85, 95% CI = 1.07–3.21), of assault/threat (OR = 4.62, 95% CI = (2.32–9.19) and of discrimination (OR = 3.34, 95% CI = (2.1–5.62). In addition, patients reported experiencing higher distress in assault/threat crime compared to controls (p = .03). Conclusions: Patients with serious mental illness are more likely than the general population to report being victims of criminal acts and experiencing discrimination.
