Abstract

Sexual minority adolescents’ disclosure of sexual identity to family plays a significant role in their identity development. Studies have identified various predictors of coming out to family, yet these findings have yet to be systematically integrated to identify gaps and directions of future research. The goal of this study was to conduct a systematic review of predictors of sexual minority adolescents’ and young adults’ disclosure to family about their sexual identity. Drawing upon an existing conceptual model of antecedents of disclosure of stigmatized identities to organize the findings, this review focused on individual characteristics and proximal (e.g., familial and social) and distal (e.g., historical) environmental factors that influence disclosure to family. A total of 35 empirical studies were included. Regarding individual factors, less internalized homonegativity and greater identification of sexual identity promoted disclosure. Among familial and social factors, positive family relationship quality and friend support predicted greater disclosure. Distal environmental factors included differences in the proportion of disclosure by historical periods. The findings highlight the important role of acceptance and visibility of sexual minorities within family and social environments in promoting youth’s disclosure of sexual identity to family.

性少数群体青少年向家庭披露性身份的系统回顾与概念框架
性少数群体青少年向家庭披露性身份对其身份发展起着重要作用。研究已经确定了与家人接触的各种预测因素,但这些发现还没有被系统地整合,以确定未来研究的差距和方向。本研究的目的是对性少数群体青少年和年轻人向家人披露其性身份的预测因素进行系统综述。本综述利用污名化身份披露前因的现有概念模型来组织研究结果,重点关注影响向家庭披露的个人特征以及近端(如家庭和社会)和远端(如历史)环境因素。共纳入35项实证研究。关于个体因素,较少内化的同负性和对性身份的更多认同促进了披露。在家庭和社会因素中,积极的家庭关系质量和朋友支持预示着更多的披露。远端环境因素包括历史时期披露比例的差异。研究结果强调了在家庭和社会环境中对性少数群体的接受和可见性在促进青年向家庭披露性身份方面的重要作用。

期刊介绍: Adolescent Research Review publishes articles that review important contributions to the understanding of adolescence.  The Review draws from the many subdisciplines of developmental science, psychological science, education, criminology, public health, medicine, social work, and other allied disciplines that address the subject of youth and adolescence. The editors are especially interested in articles that bridge gaps between disciplines or that focus on topics that transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries.  Reviews must be cutting edge and comprehensive in the way they advance science, practice or policy relating to adolescents.
