Impact of an intervention on stigma in mental health and intergroup anxiety

Conclusion We verified a positive impact of clinical teaching in the reduction of anxiety towards people with mental illness, which led to a reduction of stigma associated to mental health. The intervention oriented towards stigma did not reveal significant effects concerning global stigma, nor intergroup anxiety, which showed the future necessity of its reformulation and comparison with samples of students from other nursing universities.
