We synthesized correlation effects from 149 studies (141 reports, 38,650 participants, 1982-2024). IR was significantly (p < .05) positively associated with (a) psychological stress (k = 64, r = .18), (b) biophysiological stress (k = 18, r = .10), (c) engagement in health-compromising behaviors (k = 52, r = .16), (d) negative mental health (k = 330, r = .23), and (e) negative physical health (k = 31, r = .09) and significantly negatively associated with (f) positive mental health (k = 50, r = -.19) and (g) positive physical health (k = 14, r = -.08). IR was not associated with (h) overall health (k = 5, r = -.06). After adjusting for covariates (gender, age, ethnoracial group, publication year, peer-review status, and form and evaluative focus of IR), only the associations between IR with psychological stress and with negative mental health remained significant. The association between IR and negative mental health was partially explained by health-compromising behaviors, but not by psychological stress. There was mixed evidence of publication bias, and study quality only moderated the association between IR and positive mental health. Findings support an expanded internalized racism framework, the IR-stress-vulnerability model, which highlights bidirectional relationships among IR, stress, health-compromising behaviors, and health, with implications for addressing IR among minoritized ethnoracial groups.

We meta-analyzed all research since the inception of ambivalent sexism theory (1996-2023) that measured hostile sexism (i.e., derogatory attitudes) or benevolent sexism (i.e., patronizing attitudes) toward women. Using 1,097 samples from 81 countries, we considered evidence for principles of ambivalent sexism theory, including the extent to which endorsements of hostile sexism and benevolent sexism (a) differed across years, (b) were associated with one another, and (c) were associated with countries' gender inequalities. Multilevel meta-analytic models indicated that endorsement of sexism generally followed trajectories of small declines over years, provided robust evidence that sexism is \"ambivalent\" because hostile sexism was consistently associated with greater benevolent sexism, and suggested that people's greater endorsement of hostile sexism in a country predicted greater gender inequality in that country, although this association was attenuated in later samples. Implications of these tests informed theoretical gaps in need of research: investigating why the declining trajectories of sexism were stronger in some countries relative to others, identifying the most appropriate markers of gender inequality, and specifying the time lags between experienced inequalities and endorsement of sexism. Our multilevel meta-analysis provided initial information about the cross-country patterns of ambivalent sexism and established a need for longitudinal cultural research to identify the origins of ambivalent sexism and its consequences for gender inequalities across the world.

This systematic review and meta-analysis examined which men are most vulnerable and the factors underpinning men's suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, and death by suicide following relationship breakdown. We reviewed 75 studies across 30 countries (N ≥ 100 million men). Of these, 29 studies were included in random-effects meta-analyses and the remainder were narratively synthesized. Meta-analyses found separated/divorced men had greater odds of suicidal ideation than married men (k = 7; odds ratio [OR] = 1.64, 95% CI [1.27, 2.13]). Divorced men also had greater odds of suicide attempt (k = 3; OR = 1.73, 95% CI [1.05, 2.85]) and death by suicide (k = 33; OR = 2.82, 95% CI [2.53, 3.15]) than married men. Risk of suicidality appeared greatest in the immediate aftermath of relationship breakdown, as separated men displayed nearly twofold greater odds of suicide than divorced men (k = 10; OR = 1.96, 95% CI [1.42, 2.71]). Men's suicidality following relationship breakdown was also linked to younger age (≤34 years), less than tertiary education, lack of employment, and psychological factors such as loneliness and emotion dysregulation. Study limitations included the following: wide methodological variability in the source literature, precluding meta-analysis of most included studies; inconsistent reporting of demographics prohibiting more detailed meta-analyses within subgroups of men; and a predominant focus on marital separation and divorce, with comparatively little data reflecting nonmarital relationship breakdown in association with suicidality. Opportunities for preventing suicidality following relationship breakdown are discussed, alongside future research to address knowledge gaps regarding factors that interact with relationship breakdown in men's suicidality.
