Psychosocial Burden of Epilepsy
Perceived Stigma, and Social Misconceptions in People With Epilepsy
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to investigate the educational, occupational, and social challenges experienced by individuals with epilepsy using structured questionnaires developed by the research team. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, people with epilepsy may continue to face difficulties related to stigma, access to opportunities, and daily functioning. Participants will complete survey forms designed to assess barriers encountered in school, workplace, and social environments, as well as their perceptions and experiences related to living with epilepsy. The findings are expected to provide insight into unmet needs and inform strategies to improve support and quality of life for individuals with epilepsy.
