The current study investigated the serial mediation role of self-stigma and self-compassion in the relationship between masculine gender role stress and attitudes toward seeking psychological help. A total of 595 male university students between 18 and 38-years-old (M = 21.87, SD = 3.14) were recruited from various universities across Türkiye. Participants completed self-report measures of masculine gender role stress, attitudes towards seeking psychological help, self-compassion, and self-stigma. Serial multiple mediation analyses were carried out using SPSS Process Macro. The findings showed that self-compassion was negatively related to masculine gender role stress and self-stigma, while positively associated with attitudes toward seeking psychological help. The serial mediation analysis showed that self-stigma and self-compassion serially mediated the relationship between masculine gender role stress and attitudes toward seeking psychological help. The findings suggested that self-compassion could be a protective factor for male university students who conformed to masculine norms as well as were reluctant to seek help from mental health professionals.
