AbstractAimsIn patients with psychosis, perceived stigma (i.e., beliefs about discriminative viewpoints held by the public) and self‐stigma (i.e., internalization of such perceived stereotypes) could have devastating consequences. Knowledge about their correlates bears importance for understanding individual differences in stigma experiences, and further, given the social nature of stigma, Asians may show more distinctive features than Westerners.MethodsA total of 142 Chinese patients who originally enrolled into a randomized controlled trial during their first‐episode psychosis were followed up at 10 years. We explored potential demographics, clinical and psychosocial correlates of perceived stigma and self‐stigma.ResultsStepwise multiple regression analyses indicated that both perceived‐ and self‐stigma were predicted by a more negative attitude to treatment, whereas differential factors including perceived recovery predicted perceived stigma, and quality of life and attention predicted self‐stigma.ConclusionsThese results can help identify individuals susceptible to experiencing perceived‐ or self‐stigma, highlighting the need to consider factors such as attitude towards treatment when designing anti‐stigma strategies.
