ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the impact of an empathy intervention through patients’ stories and investigate its impact on attitudes and stigma toward mental illness among nursing students prone to hold prejudices against this condition.MethodsUsing a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design, this study focused on nursing students and examined the effects of an empathy enhancement program targeting individuals with mental illnesses on communication, social distance, and prejudice.

The intervention lasted 4 weeks and used the patient’s story to facilitate a participatory approach to understanding the patient’s life and encouraging mutual growth and expansion of consciousness in the therapeutic relationship.

However, variations were observed when examining specific subdomains within each group and across time points.
