“…L' objectif principal de l' étude était de voir si les biais de genre dans le choix du diagnostic psychiatrique relevés dans plusieurs études chez les professionnel•le•s [9,18,19] sont déjà présents chez les étudiant•e•s ou si ces biais arrivent plus tard, au gré de la pratique professionnelle.…”

“…En effet, les résultats des vignettes des trois personnages n' ont pas permis de démontrer une différence significative dans le choix du diagnostic selon le genre du personnage mis en scène. Le seul résultat significatif en lien avec le genre du personnage concerne la vignette du personnage trader, mais uniquement pour le diagnostic du TPB: le personnage femme a une plus grande probabilité de recevoir un diagnostic de TPB que le personnage homme, ce qui rejoint la prévalence observée dans différentes études [9,14,19]. Ce résultat doit toutefois être pris avec beaucoup de précautions, aucune différence significative n'ayant pu être démontrée pour les autres diagnostics en lien avec cette vignette.…”

“…Malgré l' existence de vignettes cliniques déjà construites [9,15,19,[24][25][26][27] Sur la base de la revue de la littérature et de la consultation des expert•e•s précité•e•s, notre choix s' est porté sur les trois diagnostics suivants: la dépression, pour laquelle la prévalence est de 2 femmes pour 1 homme [31,32], le trouble de la personnalité borderline (TPB), pour lequel la prévalence est de 2 à 3 femmes pour 1 homme selon les études [9,19,14] et le trouble de la personnalité antisociale, pour lequel la prévalence est de 3 hommes pour 1 femme [9,14,15].…”

“…La littérature scientifique tend à confirmer que les préjugés liés au genre chez les professionnel•le•s jouent un certain rôle dans les diagnostics qu'ils/elles posent en santé mentale [3,9,18,19]. Il reste toutefois difficile d' estimer le poids de ces biais dans le choix diagnostique et si ces biais tirent leur origine des stéréotypes que porte la société en général sur le genre ou s'ils surviennent avec la pratique.…”

Backgr Background: ound: Mental health problems affect men and women differently and women have a higher prevalence of mental health issues than men. Overall, women are two to three times more likely to be affected than men. Scientific literature tends to confirm that gender bias among professionals plays a certain role in mental health diagnosis. The aim of this study is to find out whether these biases already exist prior to professional practice by investigating the presence of gender biases in psychology and medical students. Method: Method: The study used two identical versions of online questionnaires and clinical vignettes, differing only in the gender of the character depicted. The vignettes were presented to the participants at random. 429 students from the University of Geneva answered the questionnaire and 362 responses were included in the analysis. The study focused on three diagnoses: depression, borderline personality disorder (BPD) and antisocial personality disorder (APD). Results: Results: For the majority of vignettes and diagnoses, the results showed no significant difference in the choice of diagnosis depending on the gender of the portrayed character. The results were significant for the vignette centred on APD and in the diagnosis of BPD with an odds ratio of 0.61 (95% confidence interval 0.38-0.98) (for BPD). In addition, the variable year and faculty of study had a significant influence on the choice of diagnosis for two vignettes (p = 0.006 for the depression vignette and p <0.001 for the APD vignette). Conclusion: Conclusion: Overall, the study did not identify any gender bias in students' choice of psychiatric diagnosis. However, it did highlight the influence of year and faculty of study in this decision.

“…Age was included as a control variable because younger adults have been found, on average, to have higher borderline symptom severity (McMahon et al, 2019) compared to older adults. Gender was included as a control variable because gender differences have been found for the unstable relationships criterion of BPD symptom measures (Paggeot & Huprich, 2018) and for other mental health symptoms (e.g., depression; Maji, 2018).…”

Objective The present study investigated the effectiveness of dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and the effect of improvement in DBT skills on clinical outcomes. Method Participants included 57 adults who attended a community mental health service and underwent one of two modes of DBT. Twenty‐six adults had been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) and participated in comprehensive DBT (DBT‐C; including group skills training, individual therapy, and phone coaching). Thirty‐one adults had BPD traits and participated in DBT skills training (DBT‐S; group skills training only). In the present study, the DBT skills examined were mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness; the clinical outcomes examined were borderline symptoms, psychological distress, and quality of life. Results Six 2 × 2 analysis of covariances indicated significant improvements in psychological distress, quality of life, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness (but not borderline symptoms and emotion regulation), over a 6‐month period. Mode of delivery of DBT did not impact on the improvement in DBT skills and clinical outcomes over the 6‐month period. Hierarchical multiple regression results indicated that improvement in DBT skills (mindfulness, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness) were associated with reductions in borderline symptoms and psychological distress, with emotion regulation the only skill uniquely associated with improvements in clinical outcomes. Conclusions The results of the present study support the effectiveness of DBT and the specific role of emotion regulation for favorable clinical outcomes over a 6‐month period, independent of the mode of delivery of DBT.
