[Pharmacological treatment and health control beliefs from the perspective of psychiatric patients: differences in attitudes].

CONCLUSION: The Hungarian version of the PHBQPT can be used in case of Hungarian psychiatric patients; the similarity shown by the results points at the fact that attitude towards treatment is independent of cultural and healthcare system diff erences. Our results highlight that there are variances between different psychiatric disorders in health belief and attitude towards drug treatment. Our study emphasizes the importance of thorough assessment of patients' attitude that is necessary to conceive an effective adherence improving intervention. PMID: 32015194 [PubMed - in process]
