L’approche inclusive est un enjeu à l’heure actuelle dans nos sociétés qui croient en l’éducabilité universelle. Or, l’évaluation des apprentissages reste encore dans une vision de sanction, et le retour du résultat chiffré n’a pas aidé. Par conséquent, les pratiques évaluatives des enseignants prônent encore une vision qui vise à classer les « bon...

... In doing so, they adopt various strategies, such as flight, in order to avoid revealing their problem, and wait until they reach the limit of their capacities to withstand hardship, sometimes until the situation becomes critical, before actively seeking help (Banks, 2001; Dulac, 2001; Rondeau, 2004). Moreover, men appear to be particularly susceptible to risk factors associated with psychological distress, such as socioeconomic difficulties, material precariousness, relationship breakdown and celibacy, family difficulties, lack of awareness of social and health services, not having a family physician (Roy et al., 2015), experiences of rejection and repression on the part of health personnel who consider men's behavior to be less compliant with interventions , and having lived in an underprivileged environment (Lacourse, 2005). Thus, more men than women reported low levels of social support, particularly in the 25 to 44 age group (Roy et al., 2015). ...

While a study by identifies that fewer men (5%) than women (9%) reported significant symptoms of psychological distress, men continue to have higher suicide rates than do women; in the Québec region of Saguenay, for example, men account for 80% of annual suicide deaths. ...
... Thus, rigid and restrictive gender roles assimilated through socialization not only hinder individuals from attaining their full human potential but also become a source of stress, tension, and role conflicts. For example, the quest for autonomy as a vector of male identity can induce men to distance themselves from help and health services when they find themselves in a position of vulnerability (Roy et al., 2015). For his part, Dulac (2001) considers male socialization to be an inhibitor of male help seeking, adding that soliciting help can be socially interpreted as a sign of weakness and nonmasculinity . ...

The article presents the results of a study involving 18 men, 4 years after one of South America’s most powerful natural disasters: An earthquake occurring off the coast of Chile in February 2010. Participants reported having developed new psychological health problems in the months following the catastrophe. The manifestations most frequently reported by participants were the presence of depressive and stress symptoms, as well as sleep disorders. The majority of participants registered scores of 33 and above on the Impact of Event Scale–Revised, indicating that they were suffering from posttraumatic stress. Furthermore, although the majority of interviewed men reported having suffered psychological or physical health problems following the disaster, only a small minority had sought help from professional health services. The article develops insights into the men’s social interactions and underlines the importance of supporting further research on red health topics, in particular the help-seeking behavior of men following exposure to natural disasters.
