METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of existing literature utilizing…
Positionality as Situated Identity
Positionality as Praxis
This second issue in the four-part series on positionality in evaluation advances understanding of positionality as embodied practice, theoretical intervention, and liberatory praxis. Building on dialogic and relational foundations, the articles ground how evaluators’ identities, bodies, histories, and contexts of practice shape evaluation design, relationships, and use. Centering Blackness and drawing on Black feminist, Afrofuturist, and Pan-Afr…
Understanding social context in HIV and drug use via community-informed computational modeling
Introduction: Racial, ethnic, and sexual and gender minority populations are disproportionately impacted by HIV and other infectious diseases. A rigorous and holistic view of how individual and complex factors interact to produce health disparities among minority populations is urgently necessary. Methods: This project seeks to understand the social and contextual systems around the most marginalized HIV-impacted populations by investigating how …
Dispositional moral attribution and association avoidance
Bullying and depression serially mediate the association between perceived gender nonconformity and suicidality among US adolescents
This research has implications for understanding the potential underlying mechanisms that link perceived gender nonconformity to suicidality among adolescents. The hypothesized cascade of contextual risk factors for adolescent suicidality seems to be more harmful among Hispanic Straight Males. Studying contextual mechanisms can help develop therapeutic interventions that target adolescents most at-risk of suicidality
Mpox epidemiology, barriers to treatment and prevention, and perceived stigma
Stigma surrounding mpox exacerbates healthcare disparities and may influence preventive behaviors. Public health efforts should prioritize stigma-reduction strategies, culturally competent care, and targeted community engagement to improve outcomes in persons with mpox and similar infectious disease outbreaks
Positionality as Dialog
The concept of positionality, or how one is situated across multiple loci of privilege and disadvantage, can be a powerful tool for evaluation. In this first curated section of positionality articles, we hear from three pairs of evaluators who engage in dialogues around their shared and divergent identities. Since we drafted our initial section notes in February 2025, much has changed in the world of research and evaluation, with ongoing attacks …

Perceived gender expression nonconformity as an important determinant for vulnerability to bullying and cyberbullying among high school youth in the United States, 2013-2021
“Being Queer, It Was Really Isolating”
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and other sexual and gender minority (LGBTQ+) youth and young adults (YYAs) have poorer mental health outcomes than their cisgender, heterosexual peers in large part due to multilevel stigmatization and minority stress. This was exacerbated by psychological stressors stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic; these experiences intersected with YYA unique developmental stage. Here we explored LGBTQ+ YYA’s pand…
Stigma, Mental Health, and Health care Use Among Rural Sexual and Gender Minority Individuals
Sexual and gender minorities (SGM) frequently experience depression and health care-related stigma. Health care satisfaction is important for seeking care, but little is known about SGM health care satisfaction, and especially as it relates to depression among rural SGM. From May 25 to July 2, 2021, we surveyed rural Illinois (IL) individuals aged ≥18 years on the topics of demographics, depression, health care satisfaction, past health care expe…

Mental health of gender minority older adults in the United States
While the mental health of gender minority (GM) individuals has garnered increased attention in recent years, GM older adults (i.e., aged 50 and older) remain overlooked in research. Thus, we conducted a systematic review with the aim of synthesizing and evaluating existing research regarding mental health concerns and disparities, risk factors, and protective factors among GM older adults in the United States. Following the Preferred Reporting I…

Disparities in HIV Testing, Condom Use, and HIV Education Between Transgender and Not Transgender High School–Aged Youth
Transgender individuals are disproportionately affected by HIV in the United States. Given increased risk of HIV among youth, there is a need to understand HIV risk and protective factors among transgender individuals who are 18 years and younger. Patterns of HIV testing, HIV education, and condom use have known associations with HIV outcomes among youth in general, but are understudied among transgender youth. This study assessed these outcomes …
Behaviors associated with HIV transmission risk among rural sexual and gender minority and majority residents
Multiple rural states and communities experience elevated rates of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), often associated with diminished healthcare access and increased drug use. Though a substantial proportion of rural populations are sexual and gender minorities (SGM), little is known of this group regarding substance use, healthcare utilization, and HIV transmission behaviors. During May–July 2021, we surveyed 398 individuals across 22 rural Il…
Ending the HIV Epidemic
The rapid implementation of molecular HIV surveillance (MHS) has resulted in significant challenges for local health departments to develop real-time cluster detection and response (CDR) interventions for priority populations impacted by HIV. This study is among the first to explore professionals' strategies to implement MHS and develop CDR interventions in real-world public health settings. Methods: Semi-structured qualitative interviews were co…

Multiple minority stress and LGBT community resilience among sexual minority men
Minority stress theory has widespread research support in explaining health disparities experienced by sexual and gender minorities. However, less is known about how minority stress impacts multiply marginalized groups, such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people of color (LGBT POC). Also, although research has documented resilience in the face of minority stress at the individual level, research is needed that examines macro-level pro…
Evidence of Social and Structural Covid-19 Disparities by Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and Race/Ethnicity in an Urban Environment
Assessing the stability of egocentric networks over time using the digital participant-aided sociogram tool Network Canvas
This paper examines the stability of egocentric networks as reported over time using a novel touchscreen-based participant-aided sociogram. Past work has noted the instability of nominated network alters, with a large proportion leaving and reappearing between interview observations. To explain this instability of networks over time, researchers often look to structural embeddedness, namely the notion that alters are connected to other alters wit…
Bias From Potentially Mischievous Responders on Large-Scale Estimates of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, or Questioning (LGBQ)–Heterosexual Youth Health Disparities
Objectives. To determine how sensitive estimates of lesbian, gay, bisexual, or questioning (LGBQ)–heterosexual youth health disparities are to the presence of potentially mischievous responders. Methods. We used US data from the 2015 Youth Risk Behavior Survey, pooled across jurisdictions that included a question about sexual identity for a total sample of 148 960 students. We used boosted regressions (a machine-learning technique) to identify un…

We obtained a diverse sample of youths (n = 307 073) from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Youth Risk Behavior Survey. We pooled data across 107 jurisdiction-years (2009–2017). We calculated lifetime asthma prevalence by sexual identity, race/ethn…
Changes in Sexual and Gender Identity and Their Associations with Internalized Homophobia Among Black Men Who Have Sex with Men in the HPTN 061 BROTHERS Cohort
Empowerment Evaluation
HIV continues to significantly impact the health of communities, particularly affecting racially and ethnically diverse men who have sex with men and transgender women. In response, health departments often fund a number of community organizations to provide each of these subgroups with comprehensive and culturally responsive services. To this point, evaluators have focused on individual interventions, but have largely overlooked the complex envi…
Do recruitment patterns of young men who have sex with men (YMSM) recruited through respondent-driven sampling (RDS) violate assumptions
BACKGROUND: To generate unbiased estimates for data collected using respondent-driven sampling (RDS), a number of assumptions need to be met: individuals recruit randomly from their social network and people can accurately report their eligible network size. However, research has shown that these assumptions are often violated. METHODS: This study used baseline data from Crew 450, a longitudinal study of young men who have sex with men in Chicago…

Transforming the Paradigm for LGBTQ+ Evaluation
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, Two-Spirit, and other sexual and gender minority (LGBTQ+) individuals encounter numerous obstacles to equity across health and healthcare, education, housing, employment, and other domains. Such barriers are even greater for LGBTQ+ individuals who are also Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), as well as those who are disabled, and those who are working-class, poor, and otherwise eco…

House/ball culture and adolescent African-American transgender persons and men who have sex with men
Transgender persons and young men of color who have sex with men (YMSM of color) have been severely affected by HIV in the USA. Houses and balls in the USA have historically been a primary meeting ground for YMSM of color and transgender people, offering an opportunity for HIV prevention activities. Houses provide a familial structure for YMSM of color and transgender people, while balls provide them with events at which they can congregate for s…
Oral versus anal sex at last encounter – behavioral differences among men who have sex with men in the District of Columbia
Oral sex may be used as a form of harm reduction against HIV transmission. We compared characteristics of men who have sex with men (MSM) in Washington, DC having oral sex versus those having anal sex at last encounter. Data collected through National HIV Behavioral Surveillance in 2008 using venue-based sampling were used. Men ≥18 years old disclosing MSM behavior in the past year were analyzed (n=500); OraQuick and Western Blot confirmation wer…

A Longitudinal Analysis of Treatment Optimism and HIV Acquisition and Transmission Risk Behaviors Among Black Men Who Have Sex with Men in HPTN 061
Condom and Substance Use at Last Sex
HIV disproportionately impacts youth, particularly young men who have sex with men (YMSM), a population that includes subgroups of young men who have sex with men only (YMSMO) and young men who have sex with men and women (YMSMW). In 2015, among male youth, 92% of new HIV diagnoses were among YMSM. The reasons why YMSM are disproportionately at risk for HIV acquisition, however, remain incompletely explored. We performed event-level analyses to c…
