BACKGROUND: Suicide is a leading cause of death among young males in Australia. Tomorrow Man's "Breaking the Man Code" workshops aim to challenge potentially harmful masculine norms and promote positive attitudes towards help-seeking among adolescent boys in schools.
METHODS: Our stratified cluster randomized trial was undertaken with 1225 boys (mean (SD) age = 15.04 (0.74) years) across 24 Australian secondary schools: 13 randomized to intervention, 11 to waitlist control. Primary outcome was mean change in intentions to seek help for personal or emotional problems 4 to 8 weeks from baseline. Secondary outcomes included conformity to masculine norms, depression risk, perceived social support, and quality of life. Purpose-designed closed-ended questions captured other behavioral and attitudinal changes. The trial was prospectively registered with ANZCTR.
RESULTS: Estimated mean change in scores from baseline between the two groups on the primary outcome was -0.07 (95% confidence interval: -1.75, 1.62; p = 0.937). Purpose-designed questions revealed increased help-offering, connection with friends, and some potential barriers to change.
CONCLUSIONS: Further research is needed to understand the impacts of school-based interventions for boys.
