Summary

Mental disorders are currently among the main causes of disability worldwide. For this reason, various national and international organisations include the promotion of mental health among their strategic actions, with special emphasis on the fight against stigma. Evidence shows that stigma has a negative impact on the process of recovery and participation of people with mental disorders.

The general aim of this study is to find out about the attitudes of university students at the University of A Coruña towards people with mental disorders and specifically to intervene with students of the Bachelor's Degree in Occupational Therapy to assess whether taking part in a Mental Health Literacy Programme changes these attitudes.

Mental Health Literacy Program. This program is part of the training of third-year students of the occupational therapy degree at the University of A Coruña. We will follow a mixed method following a sequential explanatory design. The quantitative part corresponds to a quasi-experimental study, where a comparison will be made between the phase before and after the students take the program. The qualitative part will comprise a phenomenological study to collect the knowledge acquired by the students after taking the program.
