Ten to Men: The Australian Longitudinal Study on Male Health was commissioned by the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing following the 2010 National Male Health Policy and currently serves the National Men’s Health Strategy 2020-2030. This is Australia’s first national longitudinal study that focuses exclusively on male health and wellbeing. The original cohort was recruited using a stratified, multi-stage and cluster sampling design to select males aged 10–55 years. Recruitment of eligible participants and Wave 1 of the data collection occurred between October 2013 and July 2014, resulting in a reconciled sample size of 16,021.
Due to attrition of the original sample, a top-up of the sample was conducted to recruit additional adult-aged males, including over-sampling priority population groups underrepresented in the sample. This included both a pilot (March 2022 - April 2022) and main sample top-up (September 2023 - April 2024; January 2025 - February 2025). Recruitment methods used were probability-based (address-based sampling (A-BS) and random digit dialling (RDD)) and non-probability based (social media advertising targeting underrepresented groups). A total of 10,004 additional participants were recruited. (2025-06-28)
