Introduction: Mental illnesses are a common condition throughout the world and people who suffer from them often find themselves under stereotypes, stigmatization and bleak circumstances. Stigmatization by health professionals towards people with psychiatric disorders is a problem that is not highly visible, but is present both globally and nationally and that affects the insertion, treatment and recovery of these patients, since they are mostly labeled as aggressive and intimidating. Objectives: To determine the attitude of medical students towards mental health in four dimensions: authoritarianism, benevolence, social restriction and ideology, according to sex and year of study. Methodology: A cross-sectional, descriptive, non-experimental study was carried out. The CAMI questionnaire was used, determining the attitude in four dimensions: Authoritarianism, Benevolence, Social Restriction and Ideology towards the community, associating the variables year of study and sex. Results: 231 medical students were surveyed, of which 69,7%, 70,1%, 68,8% and 60,2% presented a favorable attitude in the subscales of Authoritarianism, Benevolence, Social Restriction and Ideologies of mental health in the community respectively. Conclusions: Medical students showed a favorable attitude towards mental health, however, there is still a significant percentage that presented an unfavorable attitude. No significant difference was found in terms of sex or year of study.
