Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate changes in the attitudes towards people with mental illness in a city located in South Korea (P-city) between 2010 and 2000. Since it was not accessible to raw data of 2000, to compare with 2000 results, the results from the previous research article were used. Results from t-tests and ANCOVA analyses showed positive changes in P-city residents’ attitudes towards people with mental illness, particularly in authoritarianism and social restrictiveness. Discussion includes the role of a successful community mental health centre in bringing about such positive attitudinal changes.
