Meta-analyses of the relationship between conformity to masculine norms and mental health-related outcomes.

TL;DR: The finding that conformity to the specific masculine norms of self-reliance, power over women, and playboy were unfavorably, robustly, and consistently related to mental health-related outcomes, whereas conformityto the masculine norm of primacy of work was not significantly related to any mental health -related outcome highlights the need for researchers to disaggregate the generic construct of conformity to masculine norms.
