The relationship between competency and responsibility
Hi.
I am currently validating a measure on public mental illness stigma in the workforce , and have found a relatively high correlation between the two constructs: “work-related beliefs/competency” and “responsibility for having a mental illness“ and also the two constructs “work-related beliefs/competency” and “perceptions of dangerousness and unpredictability“
I am probably just not good enough to search or smart enough, but I cannot find any previous research on this relationship or any theories that can help me explain my explain this relationship. Anyone who can be off assistance?
