Few studies have examined how the amalgamation of minority stressors for youth with multiple marginalized identities is associated with well-being. Additionally, among youth with multiple marginalized identities, identity centrality may clarify the associations between specific types of minority stressors (i.e., bias-based peer victimization, perceived discrimination) and adjustment. This study sought to identify intersectional profiles of perceived peer victimization, perceived discrimination, and identity centrality, specific to either Latinx ethnicity or sexual minority identity in the United States. Demographic characteristics associated with each profile (i.e., age, socioeconomic status, gender nonconformity, survey language, gender, rurality) were examined, as well as associations between profiles and grade point average, self-esteem, and depression. In a sample of 219 in-school Latinx sexual minority youth (47% secondary, 53% postsecondary; Mage = 19 years, SD = 2.3), four profiles of intersectional minority stress (perceived victimization, discrimination) and identity centrality were identified: (a) low stress, low centrality; (b) low stress, high centrality; (c) moderate stress, moderate centrality, and (d) high stress, moderate centrality. Men, youth who were relatively older, socioeconomically advantaged, gender nonconforming, and those living in urban areas had higher probabilities of membership in profiles with moderate and high stress. Compared to the low stress, low centrality profile, profiles with higher levels of intersectional stress were associated with maladjustment, whereas the profile characterized by low stress, high centrality had higher levels of self-esteem.

很少有研究探讨少数民族青年的压力源与多种边缘化身份的融合如何与幸福感相关。此外，在具有多种边缘化身份的青年中，身份核心性可能会阐明特定类型的少数民族压力源（即基于偏见的同伴受害、感知歧视）与调整之间的关联。本研究旨在确定在美国，特定于拉丁裔族群或性少数群体身份的感知同伴受害、感知歧视和身份核心性的交叉剖面。研究了与每个剖面相关的人口统计学特征（即年龄、社会经济地位、性别非规范性、调查语言、性别、农村性），以及剖面与平均绩点、自尊和抑郁之间的关联。在一个由 219 名在校拉丁裔性少数青年组成的样本中（47%为中学生，53%为大学生；Mage = 19 岁，SD = 2.3），确定了四种交叉少数民族压力（感知受害、歧视）和身份核心性的剖面：（a）低压力，低核心性；（b）低压力，高核心性；（c）中等压力，中等核心性，和（d）高压力，中等核心性。男性、年龄相对较大、社会经济地位较高、性别非规范性较强以及居住在城市地区的青年，具有中等和高压力剖面的可能性更高。与低压力、低核心性剖面相比，具有较高水平的交叉压力剖面与适应不良相关，而具有低压力、高核心性特征的剖面则具有更高的自尊水平。（PsycINFO 数据库记录）
