Gender Role Conflict and Psychological Distress: The Role of Social Support
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent theoretical work in the psychology of men suggests that the negative consequences associated with traditional male gender roles might be lessened for men who experience a sense of social support. However, little research exists exploring how men adaptively utilize social support. Using a sample of 396 male participants, this study explores whether social support mediates or moderates the relationship between gender role conflict and psychological distress. Results demonstrate that social support acts as a mediator only between Restricted Emotionality and psychological distress as well as Restricted Affectionate Behavior Between Men and psychological distress. Furthermore, social support moderated only Restricted Affectionate Behavior Between Men and psychological distress.
