The Gendered Barriers to Men's Mental Health Peer Support
While men's mental health help-seeking has received increased clinical and research attention, little information exists regarding men's perspectives and experiences of peer support and mutual help for mental health challenges.

Men’s peer support for mental health challenges
Peer support has a long history of helping people navigate mental health challenges and is increasingly utilized within men’s mental health promotion initiatives. Despite considerable research conceptualizing and evaluating peer support in various contexts, little is known about the gendered dimensions of men’s peer support and mutual help for mental health. This article provides an empirically informed commentary on men’s peer support and inform…
Australian men's help-seeking pathways for anxiety
Globally, there has been a substantial increase in the number of men being diagnosed with anxiety disorders. Despite this, men's mental health research often focusses on uncovering why men don't, rather than why they do, seek help. Within this context, men's help-seeking pathways for anxiety are poorly understood. This study mapped the help-seeking pathways of 419 Australian-based men for anxiety. Respondents 16 to 77 years-old (M = 40.92 years, …
Offending behaviour and mental ill-health among young people
Adolescence marks a challenging confluence, with the frequent onset of both offending behaviour and mental ill-health. Although repeated offending behaviour is limited to a small minority of young people, it is disproportionately associated with poorer life course outcomes, social costs, and community concerns. Each year, around 30 million people are incarcerated in the world’s prisons [...]

Trends in body image among Australian queer men during Covid-19 lockdowns
Existing literature demonstrates that COVID-19 lockdowns negatively impacted body image for most people.

We sought to investigate this phenomenon among queer men – an at-risk population for negative body image. Participants were 268 (Mage = 35.30 years) queer Australian men.

Longitudinal sex differences of externalising and internalising depression symptom trajectories
BACKGROUND: Clinical reports indicate that men tend to engage in a range of externalising behaviours in response to negative emotional states. Such externalising behaviours have been theorised to reflect a male sub-type of depression that is inconsistent with current diagnostic criteria, resulting in impeded detection and treatment rates of depressed men. AIMS: In addressing previous study design limitations, this article presents self-report lon…
