Resumo(s)
Objective: to analyze the Mental Health Literacy of young and aged
men living in Brazil in the COVID-19 pandemic context. Method: a
qualitative study conducted with 87 men by means of an asynchronous
online survey. The data were processed in the NVIVO12® software,
structured with the Collective Subject Discourse method and analyzed
through Anthony Jorm’s theoretical concept of Mental Health
Literacy. Results: six central ideas emerged from the analysis of a
synthesis discourse on the components of the Mental Health Literacy,
namely: Ability to recognize specific disorders or different types
of psychological distress; Knowledge and beliefs about risk factors
and causes; Knowledge and beliefs about self-help interventions;
Knowledge and beliefs about available professional help; Attitudes that
facilitate recognition and the search for adequate help; and Knowledge
on how to seek information on mental health. Conclusion: there
are differences in the mental health literacy of young and aged men
living in Brazil during the COVID-19 pandemic. Aged men were more
competent for mental health care management and protection than
young men, in relation to the Mental Health Literacy levels.
