Clinical researchers and practitioners are increasingly aware of the need for quality theory, research, and intervention in men's mental health. Successful work in this area requires an understanding of the multitude of ways that gender, and more specifically masculinities, can be conceptualized beyond a sole focus on sex differences between men and women. Drawing from a range of social sciences in addition to psychology, the authors consider several theoretical, research, and clinical directions that can follow from social learning, psychodynamic, social constructionist, and feminist paradigms. It is concluded that thinking deeply and critically within different paradigms of masculinity is critical for progress in both research and practice.
临床研究人员和从业者越来越意识到男性心理健康领域对高质量理论、研究和干预的需求。在这一领域取得成功的工作需要理解性别,更具体地说是男性气质,可以通过多种方式进行概念化,而不仅仅是关注男性和女性之间的性别差异。除心理学外,作者还借鉴了一系列社会科学,探讨了社会学习、心理动力学、社会建构主义和女权主义范式可能带来的几个理论、研究和临床方向。结论是,在不同的男性气质范式中进行深入和批判性思考对于研究和实践的进展至关重要。
