Brief Summary

This study analyzes which variables enhance or hinder community integration among people with severe mental disorder. Participants will complete a questionnaire to test our hypotheses:

• Hypothesis 1: group identification predicts less self-dehumanization and self-stigma, and more empowerment, these in turn predict more community integration.
• Hypothesis 2: the relationship between group identification and self-dehumanization and self-stigma is moderated by group value.
• Hypothesis 3: when group identification is low, group identification predicts higher community integration, but this relationship is mediated by diagnosis concealment.
