emotional, social, and spiritual. The purpose of this study is to describe the attitudes and
behavior of individual patients with mental disorders in the community.
Method: This study used a quantitative descriptive design. The population in this study
were people in three RWs in one urban village of Surakarta with a total of 4,465 people.
The sample used in this study was 99 respondents using simple random sampling. The
analysis used is univariate analysis with a central tendency. The instrument used
individual characteristics, attitudes and behavior toward mental patients.

characteristics of the majority of respondents were female (64,6%), age 36-45 years
(38,4%), being high school education level (53,5%) and the majority working as
laborers (23,2%). The attitude of respondents to patients with mental disorders is
negative or less supportive (52,52%), while the behavior of respondents to patients
with mental disorders is considered less good (79,8%).
