Abstract：
Traditional masculine norms state men are tough, protective, and sexually assertive. Young Black men must weigh the rewards and costs of adhering to or deviating from these norms within the college environment, as their choices can be detrimental to their health. Using the ecological-exchange framework, we examined adherence to or deviation from traditional masculine norms from focus groups with 13 Black heterosexual men at two Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and one Minority-Serving Institution. Participants formed their masculinity through experiences with male role models and mothers but felt conflicted in their need to adhere to or deviate from norms. This reflects the processes men go through to develop their masculinity and highlights needed interventions focused on cultivating healthy masculinity.
摘要：
传统的男性规范规定男人很坚强，保护,性自信。年轻的黑人必须权衡在大学环境中坚持或偏离这些规范的回报和成本，因为他们的选择可能对他们的健康有害。利用生态交换框架，我们在两所历史悠久的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）和一所少数民族服务机构中，与13名黑人异性恋男性进行了焦点小组对传统男性规范的坚持或偏离。参与者通过与男性榜样和母亲的经历形成了男性气概，但在坚持或偏离规范的需求方面感到矛盾。这反映了男性发展男性气质的过程，并强调了专注于培养健康男性气质的必要干预措施。
