Abstract：
Prior work on Muslims\' mental health help-seeking factors has emphasized their rejection attitudes, religious and cultural beliefs, and familiarity with mental health (Aloud & Rathur, 2009; Ali et al., 2021). However, no research has examined differences in these factors across different Muslim ethnic groups, and particularly among Muslim women. 1214 Muslim women living in the USA completed online questionnaires. Data was stratified based on history of mental health visits to control for previous service utilization. MANOVAs assessed ethnic group differences in beliefs, familiarity, and rejection attitudes toward professional mental healthcare. Results revealed significant differences between ethnic groups in all three factors; these differences depended on the women\'s history of service utilization. Findings suggest that barriers to accessing professional mental healthcare differ among Muslim ethnic groups. Results are discussed in light of clinical implications and other contributing factors to the underutilization of professional mental healthcare among ethnically diverse American Muslim women.
摘要：
先前关于穆斯林心理健康寻求帮助的因素的工作强调了他们的拒绝态度，宗教和文化信仰，和对心理健康的熟悉(大声和拉图尔，2009年；阿里等人。,2021)。然而,没有研究调查这些因素在不同穆斯林种族之间的差异，尤其是穆斯林妇女。1214名居住在美国的穆斯林妇女完成了在线问卷调查。根据心理健康就诊的历史对数据进行分层，以控制以前的服务利用率。MANOVAs评估了种族群体的信仰差异，熟悉度,以及对专业心理健康的拒绝态度。结果显示，在所有三个因素上，种族之间存在显着差异；这些差异取决于妇女的服务利用史。研究结果表明，穆斯林族裔群体获得专业精神保健的障碍有所不同。根据不同种族的美国穆斯林妇女对专业精神保健利用不足的临床意义和其他影响因素，讨论了结果。
