- W2014239432 abstract "Objective To examine older African American's recognition of and beliefs about depressive symptoms, preferred symptom management strategies, and factors associated with willingness to use mental health treatments. Differences between the depressed and nondepressed and men and women were examined. Design Cross-sectional survey. Setting Home, senior center. Participants A total of 153 senior center members (56 male, 97 female) 55 years and older. Measurements Using a depression vignette, participants indicated if the person was depressed and their endorsement of items reflecting beliefs, stigma, symptom management, and willingness to use treatments (yes/no). A 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire assessed current symptomatology. Results Overall, 24.2% reported depressive symptoms (≥5); 88.2% correctly identified the person in the vignette as depressed. Most (≥75%) endorsed active symptom management strategies, preference for treatment in physician and therapist offices, and willingness to take medications, seek therapy, see doctor, and attend support groups; less than 33% viewed depression as stigmatizing, whereas 48% viewed depression as normal aging. Logistic regressions revealed lower education, higher physical function, and feeling okay if community knew of depression diagnosis were associated with willingness to see physician if feeling depressed; being married and believing antidepressant medications are beneficial were related to willingness to use medications. Different associations emerged for depressed/nondepressed and men and women. Conclusions Overall, this older African American sample had positive attitudes and beliefs and endorsed traditional treatment modalities suggesting that beliefs alone are unlikely barriers to underutilization of mental health services. Because different factors were associated with willingness to seek physician help and use medications and factors differed for depressed/nondepressed and by sex, interventions should be tailored.
