Abstract	Ponašanja mladića vezana uz zdravlje dio su mreže rodno uvjetovanih odnosa i struktura u društvu. Ova ponašanja povisuju rizik ozljeda. Štetne percepcije maskulinosti mogu povećati (nepotrebnu) ranjivost mladića i kao i njihov morbiditet i mortalitet. U ovoj presječnoj studiji s preko 2000 učenika iz različitih škola u gradu Zagrebu analizirana je povezanost izraženih stavova prema tradicionalnoj maskulinosti s osobnim i okolišnim faktorima, ponašanjima koja predstavljaju rizik za zdravlje i ozljedama kod učenika srednjih škola. Korištena je hrvatska verzija upitnika Male Role Norm Inventory-Adolescent-revised (MRNI-A-r) kako bi se analizirale norme vezane uz tradicionalnu maskulinost i vjerovanja o ponašanjima primjerenim za dječake adolescentne dobi. Snažnije podržavanje tradicionalnih normi maskulinosti bilo je povezano s ponašanjima koje mogu dovesti do ozljeda i smrti: korištenjem alkohola i droge, tučnjavom i nošenjem oružja i nedostatkom zaštitnog ponašanja u prometu. Istraživanjem nije demonstrirana povezanost viših rezultata na instrumentu MRNI-A-r s najprevalentnijim događajima vezanim uz ozljede. Podržavanje normi tradicionalne maskulinosti može se koristiti za bolje prepoznavanje mladića koji su pod najvećim rizikom od upuštanje u ponašanja koja predstavljanju rizik za zdravlje. Moguće je da promjena načina kako adolescenti podržavaju norme tradicionalne ima potencijal za smanjenje učestalosti ponašanja koja predstavljaju rizik za zdravlje kod mladih u Hrvatskoj.
Abstract (croatian)	Young men's health-related behaviors are part of a network of gendered relations and structures in the society. These behaviors increase the risk from injuries. Harmful notions of masculinity may increase the (needless) vulnerability of young men and increase their morbidity and mortality. The association between expressed attitudes toward traditional masculinity norms and personal and environmental factors, health-risk behaviors, and injuries among high school students was analyzed in this cross-sectional study with a sample of over 2000 students from diverse schools in Zagreb. The Croatian version of the Male Role Norm Inventory- Adolescent-revised (MRNI-A-r) was used to analyze traditional masculinity norms and beliefs about appropriate behavior for adolescent boys. The greater endorsement of traditional masculinity norms was associated with behaviors that may lead to injuries and deaths: alcohol and drug use, fighting and weapon carrying and lack of traffic protection. This research failed to demonstrate that greater scores on the MRNI-A-r scale were associated with the most prevalent injury events. The endorsement of traditional masculinity norms may help identify young men more likely to be involved in behaviors that have the potential to cause injuries and death. Changing how male adolescents endorse traditional masculinity may have the potential of reducing health risk behaviors of youth in Croatia.
