Structural Levels Of Mental Illness Stigma And Discrimination, Patrick W. Corrigan, Fred E. Markowitz, Amy Watson

Most of the models that currently describe processes related to mental illness stigma are based on individual-level psychological paradigms. In this article, using a sociological paradigm, we apply the concepts of structural discrimination to broaden our understanding of stigmatizing processes directed at people with mental illness. Structural, or institutional, discrimination includes the policies of private and governmental institutions that intentionally restrict the opportunities of people with mental illness. It also includes major institutions' policies that are not intended to discriminate but whose consequences nevertheless hinder the options of people with mental illness. After more fully defining intentional and unintentional forms …

PsSat5, a cDNA clone from Pisum sativum cv. Alaska, contained a microsatellite consisting of 15 TCA repeats within the 59UTR. This SSR microsatellite was immediately upstream of the presumptive ATG start codon. PCR amplification of genomic DNA from cv. Alaska yielded an identical sequence. This repeat region was analyzed from 10 additional wild and cultivated accessions of Pisum and from four closely related genera (Cicer, Lathyrus, Lens, and Vicia). All of the sequences were generally quite similar, with the exception of the number of TCA repeats (region 3) and a short domain immediately upstream of the repeats (region 2). Pisum …
