We first conducted a pilot study to find the 10 highly stigmatized diseases routinely seen in Taiwan, including SARS, AIDS, poliomyelitis, sexual disease, depression, drug addiction, psychosis, cleft lip and palate, shenkui ("kidney deficiency," …), and pulmonary tuberculosis. In the main study, 44 undergraduates were asked to complete the similarity judgment task and the rating task. In the similarity judgment task, participants compared pairs of diseases and judged the similarity between the one disease and the other for each pair. In the rating task, participants described the 10 diseases on six bi-polar adjectives. uncontrollable-controllable, perilous-safe, concealable-conspicuous, temporary-permanent, noncontagious-contagious, and distant- approachable. Results of a multidimensional scaling analysis indicated that the stigmatized diseases were differentiated in terms of contagiousness and concealability. The cultural universality and specificity of social representation of the stigmatized diseases were discussed. 關聯 Journal of Psychology in Chinese Societies, 10(1), 85-104 資料類型 article dc.contributor 心理系 - dc.creator (作者) Chang, Maanling - dc.creator (作者) 張滿玲 zh_TW dc.creator (作者) Chen, Yi Feng en_US dc.creator (作者) Shen, Chun-Shan en_US dc.creator (作者) Yu, Lifa en_US dc.date (日期) 2009 - dc.date.accessioned 1-Feb-2016 15:56:15 (UTC+8) - dc.date.available 1-Feb-2016 15:56:15 (UTC+8) - dc.date.issued (上傳時間) 1-Feb-2016 15:56:15 (UTC+8) - dc.identifier.uri (URI) http://nccur.lib.nccu.edu.tw/handle/140.119/81021 - dc.description.abstract (摘要) A pilot study and a main study were conducted to investigate what diseases were stigmatized in Taiwan society, and which dimensions people use to represent them.
