Article Synopsis
- The study explored how college students' beliefs about concussions and attitudes toward masculinity influence stigma and their willingness to seek treatment for concussions.
- Most participants were nonathletes without concussions, and data was gathered online from 631 undergraduates at a Northeastern university.
- Findings indicated that negative beliefs about concussions and strong masculine norms were linked to increased stigma, while beliefs about long-lasting symptoms and endorsement of self-reliance promoted a greater willingness to seek treatment.
