摘要

目的:性取向少数群体青少年(SMAs)在青春期出现心理健康症状的比例过高,少数群体压力导致了性取向少数群体青少年心理健康的不平等。性别不一致(GNC)可能会使性取向少数群体青少年面临更高的压力风险,进而出现心理健康症状。本研究旨在探讨 GNC、少数群体压力和 SMA 心理困扰之间的关联。研究方法:美国 12-17 岁的 SMA(n = 455;平均年龄 = 15.52 岁)于 2022 年 2 月至 7 月期间完成了一项横断面在线调查,调查内容包括 GNC、同伴伤害、家庭排斥、负面期望、负面披露经历、内化的同性恋倾向和心理困扰。我们进行了路径分析,研究 GNC、少数群体压力源和心理困扰之间的关联,包括 GNC 通过少数群体压力对心理困扰的间接影响。结果:在对人口统计学特征进行调整的多变量路径分析中,GNC 与 SMAs 中较高水平的同伴伤害和负面期望以及较低的内化同质性有关。较高程度的同伴伤害和消极期望与较高程度的心理压力有关。GNC 通过较高的同伴受害程度与较高的心理困扰间接相关。结论:目前的研究首次记录了 SMA 中 GNC 与多重少数群体压力体验之间的关联,并且 GNC 通过同伴受害与 SMA 的心理困扰间接相关。尽管所有 SMA 都能从旨在减少同伴伤害和提高他们应对少数群体压力能力的干预措施中受益,但此类干预措施可能对性别不符的 SMA 尤其有益。

Gender Nonconformity, Minority Stress, and Psychological Distress Among Sexual Minority Adolescents.

Purpose: Sexual minority adolescents (SMAs) have disproportionate experiences of mental health symptoms during adolescence, and minority stress contributes to mental health inequities among SMAs. Gender nonconformity (GNC) could place SMAs at higher risk for minority stress and subsequent mental health symptoms. The current study was designed to examine associations between GNC, minority stress, and psychological distress among SMAs. Method: SMAs ages 12-17 years (n = 455; mean age = 15.52 years) in the United States completed a cross-sectional online survey from February to July 2022, including measures of GNC, peer victimization, family rejection, negative expectations, negative disclosure experiences, internalized homonegativity, and psychological distress. We conducted path analysis to examine associations between GNC, minority stressors, and psychological distress, including indirect effects of GNC on psychological distress via minority stress. Results: In multivariable path analysis adjusted for demographic characteristics, GNC was associated with higher levels of peer victimization and negative expectations and lower internalized homonegativity among SMAs. Higher levels of peer victimization and negative expectations were associated with higher psychological distress. GNC was indirectly related to higher levels of psychological distress via higher peer victimization. Conclusions: The current study is the first to document associations between GNC and multiple minority stress experiences among SMAs, and GNC was indirectly related to psychological distress among SMAs via peer victimization. Although all SMAs would benefit from interventions designed to reduce peer victimization and increase their capacity to cope with minority stress, such interventions may be particularly beneficial for SMAs who are gender nonconforming.

期刊介绍: LGBT Health is the premier peer-reviewed journal dedicated to promoting optimal healthcare for millions of sexual and gender minority persons worldwide by focusing specifically on health while maintaining sufficient breadth to encompass the full range of relevant biopsychosocial and health policy issues. This Journal aims to promote greater awareness of the health concerns particular to each sexual minority population, and to improve availability and delivery of culturally appropriate healthcare services. LGBT Health also encourages further research and increased funding in this critical but currently underserved domain. The Journal provides a much-needed authoritative source and international forum in all areas pertinent to LGBT health and healthcare services. Contributions from all continents are solicited including Asia and Africa which are currently underrepresented in sex research.
