摘要
Gender-transformative health promotion offers a promising framework for improving gender-related health outcomes. These efforts modify health- and gender-related factors, such as beliefs about masculinity, producing superior outcomes to non-gender-transformative programs. We aimed to investigate young males' perspectives of male-specific gender-transformative programs to understand important methods, strengths, and limitations in programming and provide recommendations for future programs. Young males represent an important early intervention group for issues such as gendered violence and health inequity. We conducted a systematic review and meta-aggregative metasynthesis to derive synthesized findings from programmatic research. Five databases were searched (PubMed, APA PsycInfo, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Embase) from January 2000 to mid-October 2022. After we assessed study reporting quality using the QualSyst Quality Assessment Checklist, 19 studies were included and analyzed, producing three synthesized findings. Gender-transformative programs were perceived to support positive outcomes across various health-related topics. Participants also cited considerations relevant to effective implementation, programmatic limitations, and suggestions for improvement. Our findings support male-specific gender-transformative health promotion programming and can be applied to improve the quality of future programs, potentially support digital health strategies by informing online interventions, and support men's health initiatives. We provide recommendations for future practice.
