• Abstract: The present study aimed to examine the association between subjective socioeconomic status and help-seeking behaviors, as well as the underlying mechanisms. A total of 621 participants completed the Depression Stigma Scale, the Somatization of Depressive Symptoms Questionnaire, the Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale, and the Subjective Socioeconomic Status Scale. The results showed that: (1) Lower subjective socioeconomic status was associated with lower levels of help-seeking behavior; (2) Overall, subjective socioeconomic status influenced helpseeking behavior through the mediating role of self-stigma; and (3) Gender-specific analyses revealed that among men, subjective socioeconomic status affected help-seeking behavior via self-stigma, whereas among women, the association between subjective socioeconomic status and help-seeking behavior was not significant. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how socioeconomic factors shape individuals’ mental health–related behaviors and provide empirical evidence for the development of more gender-sensitive strategies to promote psychological help-seeking. 本研究旨在探讨主观社会经济地位与求助行为之间的关系及其作用机制。采用抑郁污名量表、抑郁情绪躯体化问卷、寻求专业性心理帮助的态度量表和主观社会经济地位量表对621名被试进行调查。结果表明：（1）主观社会经济地位有更低的求助行为；（2）总体上而言，主观社会经济地位可以通过自我污名影响求助行为；（3）具体到不同性别来说，在男性群体中，主观社会经济地位可以通过自我污名影响求助行为，而在女性群体中，主观社会经济地位对求助行为的影响不显著。这一发现，这一发现有助于深化我们对社会经济因素如何影响个体心理健康行为的理解，也为制定更具性别针对性的心理帮助促进策略提供了实证依据。
