Feasibility, Acceptability and Initial Impact of a Sexual Assault Resistance Program for Trans Women and Trans Feminine People
Trans women and trans feminine people are exposed to alarming rates of sexual violence in the United States of America. Responsibility for this violence rests solely with perpetrators. However, violence prevention efforts that target perpetrators are generally ineffective, whereas those that empower participants to actively resist assault, termed empowerment self-defense (ESD), show more promise. ESD programs are largely inaccessible to trans wom…
A patient-centered model of mental health care for trauma and minority stress in transgender and gender diverse people
Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals are disproportionately exposed to traumatic and high-impact minority stressors which can produce an array of transdiagnostic symptoms. Some clinical presentations align well with established evidence-based treatments, but others may require patient-centered modifications or combined approaches to address treatment needs. In this study, we employed a novel, bottom-up approach to derive insights into…
An intimacy gap? Exploring U.S. men’s experience with and capacity for physical intimacy in their same-sex friendships
Examining the impact of daily discrimination on alcohol use among racially diverse, trauma-exposed sexually minoritized adults
Results suggest that everyday discrimination may create insidious risk for coping-motivated alcohol use among SM BIPOC, a subgroup that otherwise exhibits resilience with respect to drinking. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Process adaptations to community-engaged research for preventing victimization against trans women
Effective violence prevention interventions are largely inaccessible to trans women and trans femmes, despite clear evidence that disproportionate exposure to experiences of victimization is a social determinant of health disparity. Community-engaged implementation science paradigms hold promise for guiding research psychologists in the delivery of evidence-based programming to address drivers of health disparities impacting trans women and trans…
A qualitative analysis of the context and characteristics of trauma exposure among sexual minority survivors
Clinicians working with sexual minority and other marginalized trauma survivors should specifically assess for the role of culture in traumatic experiences to inform case conceptualization and treatment plans supporting recovery of the whole survivor.

Men's psychiatric distress in context
This study examined perceived barriers to help-seeking as mechanisms by which masculinity may generate risk for psychiatric distress in men. An online sample of 558 men completed self-report measures of masculine discrepancy stress (i.e. distress about one's perceived gender nonconformity), barriers to help-seeking, and psychiatric distress. A significant indirect effect of masculine discrepancy stress on psychiatric distress emerged through perc…

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Veterans' Experiences of Discrimination in Health Care and Their Relation to Health Outcomes
Purpose: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) veterans report discrimination in health care, which may be associated with negative health outcomes/behaviors and has implications for LGBT identity disclosure to providers. Quality provider communication may serve to offset some of the deleterious effects of discrimination; however, no research to date has examined provider communication with respect to health among LGBT patients. Methods:…
Experiences of trauma, discrimination, microaggressions, and minority stress among trauma-exposed LGBT veterans
These data provide a unique account of LGBT veteran's identity-related trauma and concomitant interpersonal and institutional discrimination, microaggression experiences, minority stress, and traumatic stress symptoms. Findings highlight existing service gaps regarding evidence-based treatments for the sequalae of trauma, discrimination, microaggressions, and minority stress. In addition, we noted past and present issues in military and health ca…
Drink, don’t think
Alcohol consumption is a well-established risk factor for aggressive behavior. However, evidence suggests that alcohol's effect on aggression varies as a function of individual- and situational-based instigating and inhibiting factors. Endorsement of traditional masculine gender norms has been consistently identified as an instigating factor for alcohol-related aggression. Likewise, individuals who habitually engage in thought suppression (i.e., …
Do beliefs about gender roles moderate the relationship between exposure to misogynistic song lyrics and men's female‐directed aggression
Although independent lines of research have identified misogynistic lyrical content and traditional gender role beliefs as reliable predictors of men's female-directed aggression, more research is needed to understand the extent to which these variables may function in synthesis to potentiate aggression. In the current study, men (N = 193), who completed questionnaires relevant to their conformity to masculine norms and level of hostile and benev…
