SUMMARY:Men and depression: the relevance of masculinity? - Professor Bren
 dan Gough\, Nottingham Trent University
DTSTART:20121023T113000Z

UID:TALK40887@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Dr. Gemma Clarke
DESCRIPTION:This talk will firstly draw from a recent review of qualitativ
 e research on men and depression\, focusing on how masculinity is used to 
 inform analyses of men’s' interview talk. Critiquing the deployment of a
 nalyst categories\, and the reification of concepts like male and depresse
 d\, it is argued that researchers should focus instead on those categories
  made relevant by men themselves\, preferably in naturalistic settings whe
 re researchers are absent. To illustrate\, data from an online all-male su
 pport forum for depression will be presented. Drawing from discursive psyc
 hology and membership categorisation analysis\, I consider how men themsel
 ves do being depressed\, and how peer support is negotiated in this enviro
 nment.
