Sexual minority adolescents (lesbian, gay, bisexual) experience disparities in behavioral health outcomes compared to their heterosexual peers, generally attributed to minority stress. Although evidence of the applicability of the minority stress model among adolescents exists, it is based on a primarily adult literature. Developmental and generational differences demand further examination of minority stress to confirm its applicability. Forty-eight life history interviews with sexual minority adolescents in California (age 14-19; M = 19.27 SD = 1.38; 39.6% cismale, 35.4% cisfemale, 25% other gender) were completed, recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic analysis in QSR NVivo. Following a consensus model, all transcripts were double coded. Results suggest that minority stress is appropriate for use with adolescents; however, further emphasis should be placed on social context, coping resources, and developmental processes regarding identity development. A conceptual model is provided, as are implications for research and practice.
与异性恋同龄人相比,性少数青少年(女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋)在行为健康结果方面存在差异,这通常归因于少数群体压力。尽管有证据表明少数群体压力模型在青少年中适用,但这主要基于成人文献。发育和代际差异要求对少数群体压力进行进一步研究,以确认其适用性。对加利福尼亚州48名性少数青少年(年龄14 - 19岁;M = 19.27,SD = 1.38;39.6% 顺性别男性,35.4% 顺性别女性,25% 其他性别)进行了生活史访谈,访谈完成后进行录音、转录,并在QSR NVivo中使用主题分析进行分析。按照共识模型,所有转录本都进行了双重编码。结果表明,少数群体压力适用于青少年;然而,应进一步强调社会背景、应对资源以及身份发展的发展过程。提供了一个概念模型以及对研究和实践的启示。
