Abstract

This study aimed to validate the Dutch version of the Stanford Gender-Related Variables for Health Research (GVHR) questionnaire and explore sex differences in lifestyle factors, mental health, and health status. In 2021, 569 Dutch participants (54% women, 45% men, aged 20-80) completed the survey. Sex-stratified analyses examined associations with lifestyle (obesity, smoking, alcohol use, physical activity), mental health (depression, anxiety, stress), and overall health status. A seven-factor model best fit the data, revealing significant gendered differences. Women reported higher caregiver strain, discrimination, and emotional intelligence, while men reported more social support and risk-taking. In women findings were more pronounced, and caregiving strain was linked to psychological distress, whereas emotional intelligence and social support were protective. For men, gender discrimination was associated with smoking, depression, anxiety, stress, and poorer health status. The GVHR effectively assesses gender-related behaviors in Dutch samples, though further validation is needed in more diverse populations.

斯坦福健康研究性别相关变量问卷的荷兰语翻译和验证：与生活方式和心理健康的联系。

本研究旨在验证荷兰版斯坦福健康研究性别相关变量（GVHR）问卷，探讨生活方式因素、心理健康和健康状况的性别差异。2021年，569名荷兰参与者（54%的女性，45%的男性，年龄在20-80岁）完成了这项调查。性别分层分析检查了与生活方式（肥胖、吸烟、饮酒、体育活动）、心理健康（抑郁、焦虑、压力）和整体健康状况的关系。一个七因素模型最适合数据，揭示了显著的性别差异。女性报告了更高的照顾压力、歧视和情商，而男性报告了更多的社会支持和冒险精神。在女性身上，这一发现更为明显，照顾压力与心理困扰有关，而情商和社会支持则具有保护作用。对于男性来说，性别歧视与吸烟、抑郁、焦虑、压力和较差的健康状况有关。GVHR有效地评估了荷兰样本中与性别相关的行为，尽管需要在更多样化的人群中进一步验证。
