For men of college age, the risks of disease, injury, and death are far greater than for women of the same age group, yet college men's health concerns receive little attention from health professionals. In this multidisciplinary overview, the author discusses college men's health risks, men's failure to adopt health-promoting behaviors, their propensity to engage in risky behaviors, their beliefs about manhood, their attitudes concerning their own vulnerability, and their limited knowledge about health. Men's socialization as boys is discussed to provide a framework for understanding why many college men have adopted unhealthy lifestyles. How masculinity and stereotypes about manhood influence the health services provided for men are outlined. The importance of providing gender-specific health behavior interventions and programs is stressed, and implications for future research are offered.
对于大学年龄段的男性而言，患病、受伤和死亡的风险远远高于同年龄段的女性，然而大学男性的健康问题却很少受到健康专家的关注。在这篇多学科综述中，作者探讨了大学男性的健康风险、他们未能采取促进健康的行为、从事危险行为的倾向、他们对男子气概的看法、对自身易受伤害性的态度以及对健康的有限认知。文中讨论了男性从孩童时期开始的社会化过程，以此作为理解为何许多大学男性养成不健康生活方式的框架。概述了男子气概和关于男子气概的刻板印象如何影响为男性提供的健康服务。强调了提供针对性别差异的健康行为干预措施和项目的重要性，并提出了对未来研究的启示。
