矢萩, 未来, 勅使河原, 麻衣, 浅野, 朝秋

Occupational therapy students were classified into three groups, practical training I mental group (10 students), practical training II mental group (17 students), and non-practical training mental group (16 students), based on whether and when they had undergone practical training in a psychiatric department, to investigate the changes over time in their social attitude. The results showed that there was a significant difference in the following two items: “The behavior of individuals with mental disorders is completely beyond comprehension” and “it is preferable that locks are not used, which is the case in general hospitals, to ensure an open environment in psychiatric hospitals.” With regard to “the behavior of individuals with mental disorders is completely beyond comprehension,” the practical training II mental group experienced a significant change regarding finding the behavior of individuals with mental disorders understandable after practical training II, in comparison to before and after practical training I. A longer practical training period was considered more effective for enhancing the understanding of behavior of individuals with mental disorders. With regard to “it is preferable that locks are not used, which is the case in general hospitals, to ensure an open environment in psychiatric hospitals,” there was a significant difference regarding finding an open environment undesirable in practical training I mental group after practical training I and before practical training II, in comparison to the non-practical training group. It was suggested that the social attitude tends to be negative in an open environment when one encounters persons with mental disorders for a short period of time without sufficient knowledge.
