The current study used secondary data analysis to examine mediating and moderating effects of depression literacy on the relationship between depression stigma and attitude toward use of mental health care services in Korean American parents. Of 141 survey respondents, 36 (25.2%) were fathers and 105 (74.8%) were mothers. In mediation analysis, the indirect effects of personal stigma (B = -0.14, p < 0.05) and total stigma (B = -0.09, p < 0.05) were statistically significant. The moderating eff ect of depression literacy on the relationship between personal stigma and attitudes was also significant (B = -0.06, p < 0.05). The current study found that only the relationship between personal stigma and attitude toward mental health care service use was mediated by depression literacy.
