ABSTRACT

The article describes a mixed methods study of help-seeking in men living in the Chilean Central Valley, following exposure to a major earthquake event in 2010. The results identify that, within the sample, positive attitudes toward help-seeking correlated with younger age, higher education levels, above-average incomes, and stable personal relationships. It appears that education plays a significant role in shaping such positive attitudes, particularly by influencing views of gender roles and help-seeking. Conversely, older men's reticence toward seeking help appeared linked to negative perceptions of available services and the influence of traditional notions of masculinity. The study concludes that adapting interventions and service offers to men's needs in rural contexts must include an ecosystemic analysis of their reality and incorporate an understanding of masculinity socialization processes.

ABSTRACT

A pesquisa foi realizada no Município de Säo Gabriel da Cachoeira, noroeste amazônico, junto ao povo indígena Baníwa, em parceria com as organizaçöes indígenas, visando compreender a correlaçäo entre a cosmologia do grupo, seu sistema de representaçöes de doença e práticas de cura e sua dinâmica de transformaçäo em situaçäo de contato interétnico. O levantamento dos muitos explicativos da origem das doenças demonstrou a existência de diversas categorias tradicionais de doença que orientam as práticas tradicionais de cura e a incorporaçäo dos saberes biomédicos. A cosmologia Baníwa opera como sistema de acolhimento das informaçöes de biomedicina, que säo apropriadas e ressignificadas segundo a lógica do pensamento mítico; estratégias cognitivas similares säo utiizadas para a geraçäo das demandas que as lideranças indígenas encaminham aos Conselhos de Saúde e Serviços de Saúde.
