AbstractResearch has shown the heightened risk for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sexual risk behavior, and substance use in sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals. Further research is necessary to understand understudied sexual risk behaviors in a sample of casual substance users as the implications of substance use are not just experienced by individuals with substance use disorders. Many emerging adults (ages 18-29) experiment with substance use during the transition from adolescence to adulthood and the relationship with sexual risk behaviors are important to understand in this population. Data were collected online through Prolific from 75 participants between the ages of 18-29 who identified as being a SGM. Participants completed a survey in March 2020 indicating their substance use. In November 2021, participants indicated their risky sexual behaviors. A path analysis indicated that cannabis use at Time 1 was significantly associated with greater oral sex without a condom or dental dam, sex under the influence of alcohol and other substances at Time 2. Cocaine use at Time 1 was significantly associated with increased sex under the influence of alcohol and sex with a stranger. Results illustrate long-term implications of casual substance use in SGM populations and highlights understudied sexual risk behaviors.Keywords: Longitudinalrisky behaviorsexual behaviorsubstance use Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

Abstract This study examined the relationship between internalized heterosexism and psychological distress in a sample of 255 self-identified sexual minority (i.e., lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer) adults aged 18–68 years. Utilizing an online survey, self-compassion was examined as a mediator of the relationship between internalized heterosexism and psychological distress (i.e., anxiety and depression). Findings revealed that self-compassion (SC) was inversely related to internalized heterosexism (IH) and the psychological distress variables (i.e., anxiety and depression). Further, SC fully mediated the relationship between IH and anxiety such that greater IH predicted less SC, which in turn predicted greater anxiety. Clinical implications for the role of SC in the positive mental health outcomes of sexual minorities are discussed.

Young Black gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (YB-GBMSM) are disproportionately impacted by HIV. Structural influences on these disparities, including characteristics of the various organizations that serve YB-GBMSM living with HIV, remain understudied. We drew on Weick's model of organizing to conduct and analyze qualitative interviews with 28 HIV service providers representing healthcare and community-based organizations in Atlanta, Georgia. Enactment of HIV service provision was described as following simplified and standardized responses-defined as "rules", and/or more dynamic exchanges to formulate responses -otherwise known as "communication behavior cycles" (CBCs). Rules, including patient quotas and limited hours of operation, were viewed as rigid, out-of-touch, and inhibiting engagement with YB-GBMSM. CBCs, such as patient feedback loops and rejection of traditional hierarchies, fostered creative insights to combating the epidemic and increased levels of cultural awareness and community buy-in. Organizations should strive to enact CBCs, to foster culturally congruent approaches to service delivery for YB-GBMSM.
