BACKGROUND
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender individuals are at higher risk for substance use and substance use disorders than heterosexual individuals and are more likely to seek substance use treatment, yet sexual orientation and gender identity are frequently not reported in the research literature. The purpose of this study was to identify if sexual orientation and gender identity are being reported in the recent substance use literature, and if this has changed over time.
METHOD
The PsycINFO and PubMed databases were searched for articles released in 2007 and 2012 using the term "substance abuse" and 200 articles were randomly selected from each time period and database. Articles were coded for the presence or absence of sexual orientation and gender identity information.
RESULTS
Participants' sexual orientation was reported in 3.0% and 4.9% of the 2007 and 2.3% and 6.5% of the 2012 sample, in PsycINFO and PubMed sample articles, respectively, while non-binary gender identity was reported in 0% and 1.0% of the 2007 sample and 2.3% and 1.9% of the 2012 PsycINFO and PubMed sample articles. There were no differences in rates of reporting over time.
CONCLUSIONS
Sexual orientation and gender identity are rarely reported in the substance abuse literature, and there has not been a change in reporting practices between 2007 and 2012. Recommendations for future investigators in reporting sexual orientation and gender identity are included.
背景
女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者比异性恋者有更高的物质使用及物质使用障碍风险，且更有可能寻求物质使用治疗，但研究文献中经常未报告性取向和性别认同情况。本研究的目的是确定近期物质使用文献中是否报告了性取向和性别认同，以及这是否随时间发生了变化。
方法
在PsycINFO和PubMed数据库中搜索2007年和2012年发表的文章，使用术语“物质滥用”，并从每个时间段和数据库中随机选择200篇文章。对文章中是否存在性取向和性别认同信息进行编码。
结果
在PsycINFO和PubMed样本文章中，2007年的200个样本中有3.0%和4.9%报告了参与者的性取向，2012年的样本中有2.3%和6.5%报告了性取向；而2007年的样本中分别有0%和1.0%报告了非二元性别认同，2012年的PsycINFO和PubMed样本文章中有2.3%和1.9%报告了非二元性别认同。随时间推移报告率没有差异。
结论
物质滥用文献中很少报告性取向和性别认同，2007年至2012年期间报告做法没有变化。文中还包括了对未来研究人员报告性取向和性别认同的建议。
