Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on perceptions of the second and fifth year medical students of a patient experiencing mental disorder, psychiatrist, and psychotropic drug. An original questionnaire developed by the staff of the Department of Psychiatry of the KSMA was used as a research instrument. The study revealed the double „portraits“ of the patient with a mental disorder, psychotropic drug and the psychiatrist. The findings show that the undergraduate education in psychiatry only slightly changes the positive perception of the fifth year students of mental health services. The results indicate the need of further change and improvement of an academic curriculum on psychiatry at the different levels of education.

Keywords:

stigmatization, patient with mental disorder, psychiatrist, psychotropic drug, student of KSMA, undergraduate education in psychiatry.
