Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Level of stigma measured using the Attribution Questionnaire-27 (AQ-27) scale. In both the experimental and control groups, the participating teachers answered the AQ-27 scale before the training programme (T0). Subsequently, the experimental group answered the AQ-27 after the end of the programme (T1) and at the 3-month follow-up (T2). The control group were not given the training programme, and so only answered the AQ-27 scale at T2.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
An ad hoc questionnaire was drawn up to collect the socio-demographic data of the participating teachers (gender, age, number of children, work experience, place of residence, level of studies), and a set of variables to determine their experience with students with mental health problems (tutoring students, familiarity with mental health services, familiarity with self-harm and/or suicidal behaviour, crisis care and perceived feelings during care). Completed before the training programme (T0).
