Abstract Introduction Help-seeking for mental disorders is a complex process, which includes different temporary stages, and in which the motivational variables play an especially relevant role.

Búsqueda de ayuda profesional en personas con trastornos mentales: una decisión compleja

2015

Las investigaciones realizadas hasta el momento son escasas, emplean una metodología heterogénea y la mayoría de los estudios están realizados con muestras no clínicas. De esta manera, los datos obtenidos hasta el momento son poco c…
