人们对年轻自杀男性对护理的偏好知之甚少。在一项关于心理健康服务的发展和提供的研究中，我们采用广泛的解释方法采访了 36 名有自杀倾向的年轻男性。我们的分析得出了三个核心类别：扩大接触范围、加强积极主动的外展活动、成为一名男子汉以及为年轻人做好应对未来挑战的准备。总的来说，这些类别表明了适当的服务配置和临床护理的关键特征和流程： (a) 主动提供的服务有助于鼓励年轻人最初和持续的参与； (b) 长期提供的护理确保必要地关注有意义的未来生活； (c) 心理健康专业人员 (MHP) 与重要的其他人，包括那些有自杀经历的人一起集中参与； (d) 重要的人际关系的发展基于 MHP 积极表达他们的同理心、开放的思想以及对年轻人独特传记的兴趣。
Little is known about young suicidal men's preferences for care. Using a broad interpretive approach, we interviewed 36 formerly suicidal young men in a study addressing the development and provision of mental health services. Our analysis yielded three core categories: widening access and bolstering proactive outreach, on becoming a man, and equipping young men for future challenges. Collectively, these categories suggest key features and processes of appropriate service configuration and clinical care: (a) services that reach out proactively serve to encourage young men's initial and ongoing engagement; (b) care delivered over the long term ensures a necessary focus on a meaningful future life; (c) mental health professionals (MHPs) are centrally involved alongside significant others, including those with personal experience of suicide; and (d) the development of a vital interpersonal connection is based on MHPs actively communicating their empathy, open-mindedness, and interest in a young man's unique biography.
