abstract="Undergraduate students (N = 221), adults in a community sample (N = 211), and professional counselors and counselors-in-training (N = 269) were given a measure of tolerance. Within each sample, half of the participants were given a version that used the term &quot;the mentally ill&quot; and half were given a version that used the term &quot;people with mental illnesses.&quot; Individuals receiving the version with the term &quot;the mentally ill&quot; had lower levels of tolerance. Professional counselors had the largest differences in tolerance on the basis of language.   Keywords: individuals with mental illnesses;the mentally ill;tolerance;stigma;labeling<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
