Onderzoek naar de determinanten van het gebruik van professionele hulpverlening omwille van sociale en emotionele problemen heeft zich tot nu toe hoofdzakelijk geconcentreerd op het belang van individuele kenmerken.  In deze bijdrage gaan we na of het zorggebruik van net‐gehuwde en net‐samenwonende mannen en vrouwen (N=798 koppels) ook beïnvloed wordt door hun partner, hun relatie (duur, gezondheidsgerelateerde steun en conflict) en het verbreken van een eerdere samenwoonrelatie. We vinden geen directe invloed van intieme relaties bij mannen, maar bij vrouwen vinden we dat diegenen die ooit gescheiden zijn en diegenen die veel conflicten hebben met hun partner een minder goede mentale gezondheid hebben en bijgevolg een grotere kans hebben om een professionele hulpverlener gecontacteerd te hebben. Uit de resultaten blijkt ook dat, los van de behoefte aan hulp, vrouwen minder vaak een professionele hulpverlener contacteren, naargelang ze langer samenwonen met hun partner. Het belang van deze resultaten voor verder onderzoek en het beleid worden besproken. Abstract : Although the literature on determinants of health care use has traditionally been concentrating on individual determinants, the couple can also be considered as an important entity in the study of mental health care use. We examine how the mental health care use of recently cohabiting or newlywed men and women (N=798 couples) is influenced by the mental health care use of their partner, characteristics of their relationship (years living together, health‐related support, conflict) and a broken cohabiting relationship. We find no direct effects of intimate relationships on men’s mental health care use. Among women, results show that those who have ever been separated and those who have more conflicts with their partner have a higher health care use, which can be attributed to their higher need for care. Results also show that the longer women live with their male partner, the less mental health care they consume.

BackgroundSex and gender are important modifiers of mental health and behavior in normal times and during crises. We investigated whether they were addressed by empirical, international research which explored the mental health and health behavior ramifications after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsWe systematically searched the databases PsyArXiv, PubMed, PsycInfo, Psyndex, PubPsych, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for studies assessing mental health outcomes (main outcomes) as well as potential risk and protective health behavior (additional outcomes) up to July 2, 2020. FindingsMost of the 80 publications fulfilling the selection criteria reflected the static difference perspective treating sex and gender as dichotomous variables. The focus was on internalizing disorders (esp. anxiety and depression) burdening women in particular, while externalizing disorders were neglected. Sex- and gender-specific evaluation of mental health care use has also been lacking. With respect to unfavorable health behavior in terms of adherence to prescribed protective measures, men constitute a risk group. InterpretationsWomen remain a vulnerable group burdened by multiple stresses and mental health symptoms. The neglect of sex and gender-specific evaluation of aggression-related disorders, substance addiction, and mental health care use in the early stage represents a potentially dangerous oversight.
