This paper examines recent research on bullying victimization among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) youth to identify critical issues and advocate for future research priorities.
Recent studies have begun to document the importance of bullying in general, and bias-based bullying (rooted in stigma) in particular, on the health and wellbeing of this vulnerable subgroup of adolescents, as well as drivers of disparities. Current research demonstrates the role of multiple identities for and important differences among LGBTQ youth and has begun to identify protective factors for youth who are the targets of bullying.
Researchers, clinicians, and those working with and on behalf of LGBTQ youth must measure and acknowledge the multiple reasons for which LGBTQ youth are the targets of bullying. Intervention and prevention efforts should focus on improving the supportiveness of the climates within which LGBTQ youth live.
本文探讨了近期关于女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别及酷儿(LGBTQ)青少年受欺凌情况的研究,以确定关键问题并倡导未来的研究重点。
近期研究已开始记录欺凌行为,尤其是基于偏见的欺凌(源于污名化)对这一脆弱青少年亚群体的健康和福祉的影响,以及差异的驱动因素。当前研究表明了LGBTQ青少年多重身份的作用以及他们之间的重要差异,并已开始确定受欺凌青少年的保护因素。
研究人员、临床医生以及那些为LGBTQ青少年工作或代表他们工作的人必须衡量并认识到LGBTQ青少年成为欺凌目标的多种原因。干预和预防措施应侧重于提高LGBTQ青少年所处环境的支持性。
