Resumen
En México existen problemas de estigma y autoestigma relacionados con la salud mental, además, existe poca búsqueda para recibir tratamiento mental profesional. En este estudio se analiza la relación del autoestigma y actitudes hacia la búsqueda de tratamiento (AEABT) de salud mental con los factores de la Escala Multidimensional de Fatalismo que incluye el fatalismo y constructos relacionados. El estudio se hizo con una muestra de 140 participantes de Ciudad Juárez con una media de edad de 35.94 años (DE = 14.10) y con el 68.6% del sexo femenino. Los principales resultados es que el pesimismo fue el factor que tuvo correlaciones más fuertes con el AEABT, sin embargo, también los factores de suerte, fatalismo y control divino tuvieron correlaciones estadísticamente significativas. Por último, las respuestas a las escalas de AEABT indican niveles altos en autoestigma y niveles bajos en las actitudes hacia la búsqueda de tratamiento.
