This study aimed to examine the mental health of low-income Filipino men aged 18 years and over residing in rural areas of the Philippines and explore the relationship between their mental health status and lifestyle and self-care behaviors. A convenience sample of 426 men completed a cross-sectional survey capturing sociodemographics, depression and anxiety, psychological distress, health-related quality of life, and a range of lifestyle behaviors. Analyses included descriptive statistics, Pearson\u2019s correlations,\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">t<\/jats:italic>\n                    -tests, and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Among 426 rural Filipino men (mean age = 49.3 \u00b1 17.2 years), moderate psychological distress was observed, with 8.2% meeting criteria for depression and 14.8% for anxiety. Distress correlated positively with both depression (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .228) and anxiety (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .332) and inversely with physical (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = \u2212.239) and mental quality of life (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = \u2212.298; all\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .01). Regular exercise and seeing a doctor were linked to lower stress levels, less symptoms of depression, and higher standards of life. On the contrary, using herbs to treat ailments has been linked to more pain and anxiety (all\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .01). The results highlight the importance of integrating community-based mental health promotion with culturally accepted self-care practices. This study provides a foundational framework for increasing mental health care access among Filipino men in rural areas of the Philippines and developing culturally appropriate programs for improving their mental health through culturally accepted self-care practices.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15579883261443705","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,21]],"date-time":"2026-08-21T03:50:51Z","timestamp":1787284251000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Exploring Lifestyle Correlates of Mental Health Among Low-Income Filipino Men in Rural Areas"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2875-1124","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrew Thomas","family":"Reyes","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Las Vegas, NV, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6875-5168","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Reimund","family":"Serafica","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, Las Vegas, NV, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9733-8539","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marysol","family":"Cacciata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterans Affairs Long Beach Healthcare System, Long Beach, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Erwin William A.","family":"Leyva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Nursing, Pharmacy and Allied Health Sciences, Negros Oriental State University, Dumaguete City, Philippines"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3359-1946","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jennifer","family":"Kawi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Research, UTHealth Houston Cizik School of Nursing at UTHealth Houston, Houston, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1708-4186","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lorraine S.","family":"Evangelista","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Louise Herrington School of Nursing, Baylor University, Dallas, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Aldalaeen M.
