Substance use stigma mechanisms associated with greater depressive symptoms, substance use-related problems, and lower behavioral activation
Overview
This cross-sectional study examines the associations between three types of substance use stigma—internalized, enacted, and anticipated—and outcomes such as depressive symptoms, behavioral activation, and substance use-related problems among 212 individuals in methadone treatment. The authors report that internalized stigma was significantly linked to worse outcomes across all domains, while anticipated and enacted stigma showed marginal associations with specific factors. The resource is intended for researchers or clinicians interested in the psychosocial mechanisms of stigma within underserved populations.
