Impact of Family Rejection and Racism on Sexual and Gender Minority Stress Among LGBTQ Young People of Color During COVID-19

John P. Salerno et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of SGM-related family rejection and racism since the start of COVID-19 on SGM-related internalized homophobia and identity concealment among SGM college students of color. The findings suggest that increased racism and family rejection are significantly associated with greater odds of experiencing identity concealment since the start of COVID-19. The intersection of racism and family rejection consequently translates to increased experiences of identity concealment.

Summary: During the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, a cross-sectional study found that SGM young people experienced significantly worse mental health outcomes compared to non-SGM, even when accounting for factors like family support, discrimination, and pre-existing mental health conditions. The study suggests that the pandemic has disproportionately affected the mental health of SGM individuals and that traditional minority stress factors cannot fully explain this impact.
