The aim of the present study was to investigate the attitudes ex-mental patients hold toward other ex-mental patients in regard to their rehabilitation stage. 72 subjects from different rehabilitation centers in Israel were randomly assigned to one of the groups. Group I evaluated an ex-mental patient who was in the process of rehabilitation. Group II evaluated an ex-mental patient who had successfully completed the rehabilitation process. Group III evaluated a "normal" person. The results indicate that a more unfavourable evaluation was made toward the ex-mental patient who was in the process of rehabilitation, as compared with the ex-mental patient who had successfully completed the rehabilitation process and the "normal" person.
