“…Generally, it appears that men are less inclined than women to speak openly of their emotions, as previously shown by Houle et al (2005) and Lajeunesse et al (2013) and, consequently, are less drawn towards help groups. The thought framework of many men, therefore, appears dominated by a hegemonic masculinity that inhibits help-seeking.…”

“…It is therefore not surprising to find that men with more 'traditional' mindsets, make little use of external health services (Möller-Leimkühler, 2003) or other psychosocial services (Dulac, 1997;Dulac & Groulx, 1999;Tremblay, 2005). Overall, men are hesitant to ask for help from either their social and family circles or from professional services (Tremblay et al, 2016), particularly when faced with mental and emotional difficulties (Houle et al, 2005;O'brien, Hunt, & Hart, 2005). As the consequences of such risk behaviors for mental health are difficult to predict, health services are frequently advised to treat requests for assistance from men rapidly (B.…”

“…For the vast majority of men, their spouse is the first and often the only person they turn to when experiencing personal or emotional difficulties (Tremblay et al, 2016). By extension, men living alone frequently have no one to confide in and little social support; comparatively, they are more vulnerable to isolation and distress than are women who live alone (Houle et al, 2005;Hu & Goldman, 1990). Ai, Pappas and Simonsen (2015) for their part, note that difficult family relationships are also predictive of psychosocial difficulties in men.…”

Objective: The study examines masculinity practices, in both their positive and negative aspects, in terms of their influence on men's help-seeking in the context of a natural disaster, in particular the rejection of psychosocial assistance.Methodology: Qualitative study of a small sample of voluntary participants constituted of male survivors of a major earthquake and tsunami event in 2010 in Chile.Results: It appears that norms of hegemonic masculinity predominated in men's emotional responses to the disaster event, with both positive and negative consequences. Family relationships, mutual assistance in the community, and the passage of time emerge as the principal factors of healing for men since the catastrophe.Discussion: An understanding of men's beliefs and attitudes is, therefore, essential to any inclusive assessment of the efficacy and quality of the various services offered to populations exposed to natural disaster events.

“…Factor analyses confirmed the multidimensional structure of the scale consistent with the proposed factor structure. 16 The 24-item SPS has been used with various samples including public school teachers, 13 college students, 15,17,18 therapists 19 and spouses of cancer patients 20 as well as in several studies in Canada such as samples from the general population 21 and from a low-income population, 3,22 individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia and their families, [23][24][25] individuals who have attempted suicide 26 and families with a child in daycare. 27 A 10-item version of the SPS was recently developed and validated.…”

Introduction The 10-item Social Provisions Scale (SPS-10) has been implemented to measure social support in a number of national surveys in Canada. The objective of this study was to reduce the SPS-10 to a brief, five-item scale (SPS-5), while maintaining adequate measurement properties. Methods Data from individuals aged 18 years and older who responded to the Social Provisions Scale module in the Canadian Community Health Survey 2012 Mental Health Focus cycle (CCHS 2012 MH) and the Canadian Community Health Survey 2017 Annual cycle (CCHS 2017) were analyzed. We used exploratory factor analysis and item-to-total correlations from the CCHS 2012 MH data to choose items. A correlation analysis between the SPS-5, SPS-10 and related positive mental health (PMH) constructs were used to assess the criterion-related validity of the SPS-5 compared to the SPS-10. A confirmatory factor analysis using data from the CCHS 2017 was conducted to confirm the factor structure of the SPS-5. Results The SPS-5 showed high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha of 0.88) and similar correlations as the SPS-10 with related PMH constructs. The SPS-5 and SPS-10 were also very highly correlated (r = 0.97). The confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that a single factor model of the SPS-5 fit the data well. The SPS-5 and SPS-10 yield similar estimates of high social support, of 92.7 and 91.5%, respectively. Conclusion The new SPS-5 demonstrated adequate measurement properties, and functioned in a similar manner to the SPS-10, supporting a reduced version of the Scale. The SPS-5 is a feasible and valid alternative to the SPS-10 that could be used to reduce respondent burden on national health surveys.

Introduction L’Échelle de provisions sociales à 10 items (SPS-10) a été mise en oeuvre dans un certain nombre d’enquêtes nationales canadiennes pour évaluer le soutien social. L’objectif de notre étude était de réduire l’échelle SPS-10 à une échelle à 5 items (SPS-5) tout en conservant des propriétés de mesure adéquates. Méthodologie Nous avons analysé les données fournies par les personnes de 18 ans et plus ayant répondu aux questions du module utilisant l’Échelle de provisions sociales dans le cadre du cycle thématique sur la santé mentale de l’Enquête sur la santé dans les collectivités canadiennes de 2012 (ESCC-SM 2012) et du cycle annuel de l’Enquête sur la santé dans les collectivités canadiennes de 2017 (ESCC 2017). Pour choisir les items, nous avons effectué une analyse factorielle exploratoire et une corrélation item-total sur les données du cycle SM ESCC 2012. Nous avons utilisé une analyse de corrélation entre l’échelle SPS-5, l’échelle SPS-10 et les construits de santé mentale positive (SMP) correspondants pour évaluer la validité critérielle de l’échelle SPS-5 par rapport à l’échelle SPS-10. Nous avons effectué une analyse factorielle confirmatoire à partir des données du cycle ESCC 2017 afin de confirmer la structure des facteurs de l’échelle SPS‑5. Résultats L’échelle SPS-5 présente une cohérence interne élevée (indice alpha de Cronbach de 0,88) et des corrélations avec les construits de SMP correspondants semblables à celles de l’échelle SPS-10. Les échelles SPS-5 et SPS-10 se sont aussi avérées très fortement corrélées (r = 0,97). L’analyse factorielle confirmatoire indique que le modèle à un seul facteur par provision, c’est-à-dire la SPS-5, est bien ajusté aux données. Les échelles SPS-5 et SPS-10 produisent des estimations similaires d’un soutien social élevé, de respectivement 92,7 et 91,5 %. Conclusion La nouvelle échelle SPS-5 offre des propriétés de mesure adéquates et fonctionne de façon semblable à l’échelle SPS-10, étayant l’utilisation de cette version réduite. Elle constitue une solution de remplacement valide et utilisable de l’échelle SPS-10, ce qui pourrait alléger la tâche des participants aux enquêtes nationales sur la santé.
