“…A number of studies have been conducted on the MHL of schizophrenia (Altweck, Marshall, Ferenczi, & Lefringhausen, 2015;Angermeyer & Matschinger, 2003;Angermeyer, Millier, Rémuzat, Refaï, & Toumi, 2013;A. Furnham & Igboaka, 2007;Jensen et al, 2016;Lauber et al, 2003;Lee & Suh, 2010;Magliano et al, 2001;Reavley & Jorm, 2014;Suh, Kim, & Byoun, 1995;Yoshioka, Reavley, Rossetto, & Nakane, 2016), and the results of which appear to differ according to the study population. For instance, studies have shown that relatives of patients with schizophrenia are more likely to believe that psychosocial factors are the main cause of schizophrenia than are biological or genetic factors (Magliano et al, 2001;Suh et al, 1995).Furthermore, a study on Korean laypeople revealed that they tend to endorse individual psychological causes such as internal conflict and a lack of will rather than socio-environmental, biological, or supernatural causes of schizophrenia (Lee & Suh, 2010).…”
