  • An intersectional approach for the effects of school bullying & cyberbullying on beliefs about the future among Latine LGBTQ + youth in the United States

    Open Access•Aldo M Barrita, Roberto L Abreu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Research on Adolescence•2026

    Latine lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) youth in the United States (U.S.) experience compounded forms of oppression that increase vulnerability to both school‐based and cyberbullying. Guided by the Minority Stress Theory (MST) and the Temporal Intersectional Minority Stress Model (TIMSM), this study examined how intersectional bullying relates to future outlook among Latine LGBTQ+ youth, and whether internalized stigma, dep…

  • Profiles of parental response, intersectional microaggressions, and mental health problems among sexual and gender minority youth of color

    Open Access•Shixin Fang, Meg D Bishop et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Research on Adolescence•2026

    Sexual and gender minority youth of color (SGM YOC) face compounded mental health disparities due to oppression experienced at the intersection of racism, cissexism, and heterosexism. Parental responses to youth's sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) are critical in shaping youth mental health outcomes, yet prior research has often simplified these responses into a unidimensional acceptance–rejection continuum. Using data from the 2022 L…

  • Intersectional Oppression-Based Stress, School Safety, and Substance Use Among Sexual and Gender Minority Adolescents Who Are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color

    Open Access•Jessica R Abramson, Ashwathi Arumugam et al.•ARTICLE•Substance Use & Misuse•2026

    OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the association between intersectional oppression-based stressors and substance use among sexual and gender minority (SGM; queer and transgender [QT]) adolescents who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC) and examined the potential moderating role of school safety.

  • Alcohol and Native Language

    Open Access•Aldo M Barrita, Roberto L Abreu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Psychoactive Drugs•2026

    Intersectional microaggressions – daily slights toward individuals with multiple minoritized identities – pose significant stress for sexual and gender minoritized (SGM) Latine youth. Although research on these experiences has expanded, gaps remain regarding how they influence substance use and mental health across ethnic and linguistic lines. This study examined the relationship between intersectional microaggressions, psychological distress, an…

  • Sex Positivity, Resilience, Social Support, and PrEP and HIV Stigmas

    Nikole Babcock, R J Watson et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of Sexual…•2026

    Background: Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) significantly reduces the risk of contracting HIV among all individuals. The success of PrEP has led to the development of targeted health campaigns for encouraging the uptake of PrEP among sexual and gender diverse communities, who account for some of the highest HIV transmission rates in the U.S. PrEP uptake among Black sexual and gender-diverse populations (BSGD) remains low, which is worrisome given…

  • Black and Latine sexual minoritised individuals’ experiences accessing HIV prevention services in US medical settings

    Open Access•Peter S McCauley, Nikole Babcock et al.•ARTICLE•Culture Health & Sexuality•2026

    Healthcare settings are contexts where Black and Latine sexual minoritised individuals experience stigma when accessing HIV services. Negative experiences have the potential to shape an individual’s beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours regarding future HIV prevention. To understand their experiences accessing HIV preventive care, this study used an abductive approach to explore (1) Black and Latine sexual minoritised individuals’ experiences with p…

    Nora Yanyi Sun, Amy L Gower et al.•ARTICLE•Substance Use & Misuse•2025

    Background Asian American sexual and gender diverse youth experience bias-based stressors rooted in stereotypes and forms of oppression, which can contribute to coping behaviors like alcohol use. Few studies examine lifetime alcohol use with a focus on understanding heterogeneity within Asian American adolescents.Methods The analytic sample included Asian American youth in 9th through 12th grade (N = 86,799) who completed the 2017-2019 California…

  • The Relationship Between the Family Environment and Community Context on LGBTQ+ Youth’s Disordered Eating Behaviors

    Open Access•M S Paceley, R J Watson et al.•ARTICLE•Families in Society The Journal…•2025

    Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) youth experience disparate rates of disordered eating behaviors (DEB; purging, restricting food intake, and binge eating) compared with cisgender and/or heterosexual youth. Yet we have limited data examining the mechanisms that contribute to DEB among LGBTQ+ youth. This study examined associations among family acceptance and rejection and community context (acceptance, support, involvement, …

  • I Felt Somewhat Cheated and Deceived When that Roadblock Came”

    Open Access•Kay A Simon, Samantha E Lawrence et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS and Behavior•2025

    Substantial advances have been made in medical technologies to reduce HIV transmission in previous decades. However, disparities regarding HIV transmission continue to persist, with Black sexual minority men (BSMM) disproportionately impacted. These disparities are driven by several different economic and socio-cultural barriers, some of which include the ongoing mistrust or distrust of medicine and science among communities of color. Furthermore…

    Emerging research on sexual and gender diverse youth (SGDY) with disabilities (e.g., developmental or learning disabilities, physical disabilities) has begun to document the social- and health-related disparities that this population faces due to holding multiple marginalized identities. However, not all SGDY know their disability status, and those who are not aware of their disability status represent a unique group who might differently experie…

  • Mental health treatment preferences of sexual minority youth and young adults

    Open Access•Benjamin E Eisenstadt, Danielle Chiaramonte et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Sexual Orientation…•2025•Referências: 10

    A growing body of research among sexual minority (e.g., gay, lesbian, bisexual) populations has highlighted unique mental health treatment needs and barriers to care. Despite the rapid proliferation of novel treatments across diverse delivery modalities to address these needs and barriers, few studies have assessed sexual minority people's preferences for mental health treatment. This study described sexual minority youth and young adults' mental…

    Latinx sexual and gender minority youth (LSGMY) experience specific stressors due to intersectional systemic oppression that negatively impact their mental health. Additionally, many LSGMY report engaging in substance use to cope with daily stressors. Furthermore, research shows that parental and teacher support can serve as a buffer against substance use and negative mental health outcomes among these communities. However, there is little resear…

  • Perceptions of bias in HIV prevention services, happiness with social support, and anticipated PrEP stigma among Black and Latine/x sexual and gender diverse individuals

    Peter S McCauley, Ethan Morgan et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2024

    Although pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a highly effective preventive treatment for HIV, anticipated PrEP stigma can hinder uptake. Perceptions of bias in HIV prevention and evaluations (e.g., happiness) tied to social support among Black and Latine/x sexual and gender diverse (SGD) individuals could be important correlates of anticipated PrEP stigma. To further this line of inquiry, a national sample of 872 Black and Latine/x SGD individuals…

  • Identity outness to family among gender diverse sexual minority youth

    Open Access•Veronica Hanna-Walker, Antonia E Caba et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Sexual Orientation…•2024

    Gender diverse sexual minority youth (SMY) must manage disclosure decisions and the related implications of disclosure for two minoritized identities. However, little is known about the patterns of outness for gender diverse SMY or how these patterns are associated with their well-being. Using a sample of 4,200 gender diverse SMY ages 13-17 years old ( M age = 15.43), this paper used latent profile analysis to examine diverse patterns of outness …

  • Measurement invariance of the LGBT People of Color Microaggressions Scale among LGBTQ + youth

    Open Access•Antonia E Caba, N Keita Christophe et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Research on Adolescence•2024•Referências: 18

    The LGBT People of Color Microaggressions Scale (LGBT-PCMS) is a widely used measure of intersectional microaggression experiences among sexual and gender minority people of color. Although it is widely used-and increasingly used in adolescent and young adult samples-it is unknown whether the LGBT-PCMS demonstrates similar measurement properties across subgroups of sexual and gender minority youth of color (SGMYOC). Among 4142 SGMYOC (ages 13-17)…

  • A Latent Profile Analysis of Religious Parents’ Responses to Their Sexual and Gender Diverse Child

    Veronica Hanna-Walker, Eva S Lefkowitz et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Homosexuality•2024•Citada por: 1•Referências: 51

    Prior research indicates that religious parents can have negative, positive, or ambivalent responses to their child's sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI). Yet, to our knowledge no research has quantitatively examined patterns of sexual and gender diverse (SGD) youth's perceptions of their religious parents' responses to their SOGI. Without examining variations in these patterns, we are unable to better understand the experiences of SGD …

  • Amphetamine use and its associations with antiretroviral adherence and viral load among sexual minority men and transgender women living with HIV

    Natalie M Brousseau, Seth C Kalichman et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2023

    Substance use has complex associations to HIV disease progression. The current study tested the associations between several substances and HIV viral load while accounting for confounders relevant to HIV disease progression and substance use.

  • Sexual Identity Disclosure and Alcohol Experiences Among LGBTQ+ Adolescents

    Antonia E Caba, Allen B Mallory et al.•ARTICLE•Behavioral Medicine•2023

    Sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY) report greater alcohol use in comparison to their heterosexual counterparts. Prior research has found that elevated alcohol use among SGMY can be explained by minority stress experiences. Sexual identity outness may be another factor that drives alcohol use among SGMY, given that outness is associated with alcohol use among older sexual and gender minority samples. We examined how patterns of sexual identit…

  • Evidence of Diverse Identities in a Large National Sample of Sexual and Gender Minority Adolescents

    Open Access•R J Watson, Christopher W Wheldon et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Research on Adolescence•2019•Citada por: 49•Referências: 15

    Adolescence is a time of identity exploration, and preliminary evidence indicates the ways adolescents are describing their sexual and gender identities (SOGI) are changing. A nuanced understanding of SOGI is necessary for valid assessment in developmental research. Current measures do not capture the diversity of emerging identities among young people. Our study analyzed a national sample of 17,112 sexual and gender minority adolescents (13-17 y…

  • Intersectional internalized stigma among Black gay and bisexual men

    Open Access•Valerie A Earnshaw, Natalie M Reed et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Health Psychology•2021•Citada por: 11•Referências: 37

    Internalized stigma undermines health among people diagnosed with HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STI), yet limited research has examined how internalized stigma develops. Black gay and bisexual men ( n = 151) reported their race and sexual orientation internalized stigma once before HIV/STI diagnosis and their HIV/STI internalized stigma monthly for 1 year after HIV/STI diagnosis. Multilevel analyses demonstrated that race and sex…

    Carol Goodenow, R J Watson et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology of Sexual Orientation…•2016•Citada por: 9•Referências: 8

    Numerous recent studies have demonstrated that schools are often unsafe for lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adolescents, who are more likely than heterosexual peers to be bullied, harassed, or victimized in school contexts. Virtually all of these studies call for change, yet none investigate whether or not it has occurred. Using repeated waves of a population-based high school survey, we examine (1) the extent to which sexual orientation differe…

    Open Access•Timothy McKay, R J Watson•ARTICLE•Psychology of Sexual Orientation…•2019•Citada por: 7•Referências: 21

    Some healthcare providers work with gender expansive youth, and preliminary evidence notes that many of these youth do not disclose their gender identity to all of their healthcare providers. No previous research focused on youth has explored gender identity disclosure to healthcare providers, nor linked youth disclosure to negative mental health outcomes (e.g., symptoms of depression). Data were drawn from the LGBTQ National Teen Survey in order…

  • Bullying, depression, and parental acceptance in a sample of Latinx sexual and gender minority youth

    Sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth of color—in particular Latinx SGM youth—experience higher incidents of bullying compared to heterosexual and cisgender White youth. These disparities oftentimes explain increased negative mental health outcomes, such as depression. Parental acceptance may be a particularly important buffer to the effects of bullying on negative mental health outcomes among Latinx SGM youth. In a sample of 1,005 Latinx SGM yo…

    While research generally supports that greater outness about one's sexual identity is associated with improved well-being, emerging evidence suggests that outness may have negative consequences for bisexual individuals. Yet, few studies have examined sexual identity as a moderator of the associations between outness and well-being, especially among youth. As such, the role of outness in the mental health of diverse sexual minority youth (includin…

    While research generally supports that greater outness about one's sexual identity is associated with improved well-being, emerging evidence suggests that outness may have negative consequences for bisexual individuals. Yet, few studies have examined sexual identity as a moderator of the associations between outness and well-being, especially among youth. As such, the role of outness in the mental health of diverse sexual minority youth (includin…

  • Bullying, depression, and parental acceptance in a sample of Latinx sexual and gender minority youth

    Roberto L Abreu, G Tyler Lefevor et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of LGBT Youth•2022•Citada por: 6•Referências: 14

    Sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth of color—in particular Latinx SGM youth—experience higher incidents of bullying compared to heterosexual and cisgender White youth. These disparities oftentimes explain increased negative mental health outcomes, such as depression. Parental acceptance may be a particularly important buffer to the effects of bullying on negative mental health outcomes among Latinx SGM youth. In a sample of 1,005 Latinx SGM yo…

    In the United States (U.S.), Black sexual minority men (BSMM) are disproportionately burdened by HIV. Prevention advances, such as HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), play a key role in reducing HIV transmission and improving our understanding of sexual expression and health. Despite these advances, little is known regarding the potential link between PrEP use and positive sexuality, including the benefits that BSMM see in accessing PrEP. We con…

  • Amphetamine use and its associations with antiretroviral adherence and viral load among sexual minority men and transgender women living with HIV

    Natalie M Brousseau, Seth C Kalichman et al.•ARTICLE•AIDS Care•2023

    Substance use has complex associations to HIV disease progression. The current study tested the associations between several substances and HIV viral load while accounting for confounders relevant to HIV disease progression and substance use. Young sexual minority men and transgender women living with HIV (LWH) in Georgia (N = 385) completed measures and biological tests for HIV viral load and substance use. Multivariable regression models tested…

  • Sexual Identity Disclosure and Alcohol Experiences Among LGBTQ+ Adolescents

    Antonia E Caba, Allen B Mallory et al.•ARTICLE•Behavioral Medicine•2023

    Sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY) report greater alcohol use in comparison to their heterosexual counterparts. Prior research has found that elevated alcohol use among SGMY can be explained by minority stress experiences. Sexual identity outness may be another factor that drives alcohol use among SGMY, given that outness is associated with alcohol use among older sexual and gender minority samples. We examined how patterns of sexual identit…
