“…In addition, female students, in particular, perceived resources as being more helpful for survivors (regardless of the gender of survivor) than male participants. Given that women are more likely to engage in help seeking of all kinds (Farrimond, 2012), the majority of sexual assault resources have been designed with a female victim treatment model (Davies, 2002) and it is generally assumed that victims of sexual assault will be female , these findings are not surprising. Although we applaud the campus in this study for providing services that are perceived as helpful for female sexual assault survivors, these results also underscore the need for campuses to address the issue of sexual assault among males and provide gender-appropriate services for male survivors (Walker, Archer, & Davies, 2005).…”

“…However, women might be more likely to see resources as helpful for survivors, potentially for two reasons. First, women are more likely than men to seek help for problems of all types, including issues related to physical and mental health (Farrimond, 2012). Therefore, women might have more positive views of help seeking in general as compared to men.…”

This study explored college students' perceptions regarding barriers to disclosure of sexual assault and helpfulness of campus resources for survivors of sexual assault. To better understand barriers and social reactions to disclosure of sexual assault, it is important to examine peer perceptions of barriers and resources for assault survivors. A total of 475 undergraduate students estimated the frequency with which various barriers prevent sexual assault disclosure and rated the helpfulness of several campus resources for both male and female survivors. Students perceived that barriers to disclosure were more likely to prevent men than women from telling someone they were assaulted and seeking help. Students also believed that campus resources are more helpful for female than male survivors. Students' negative perceptions of disclosure and help seeking for male survivors indicate that more education regarding the sexual assault of males and inclusive outreach is needed.

“…A body of recent work has begun to question the simplistic link between constructions of hegemonic masculinity and men's health-care practices. 239 Evidence of the fluid and contextually dependent nature of gender in the wider body of men's health literature 240,241 suggests that the studies included in our review may not adequately capture the complexity of how masculinities intersect with men's health behaviour. Thus, there is unlikely to be a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to gender-sensitising self-management support for men.…”

“…Those depressed individuals who remained working can be affected by distressing symptoms of depression, with great interference in work performance (Addis and Mahalik, 2003;Cornally and McCarthy, 2011;Farrimond, 2012). In current study, three out of four depressed workers attended work while sick, possibly resulting in huge impact for the companies.…”
