关于女同性恋者、男同性恋者和双性恋者(LGB)的经验文献主要集中在LGB和异性恋个体之间在健康和适应方面的性取向差异,以及与同性恋相关的或少数族裔压力在LGB个体的健康和适应中的作用。除了人口控制变量外,最初的预测因子是性取向或LGB相关经历的标志(例如,少数民族压力)。缺少LGB人随着时间的推移而形成的潜在优势和弱点,并将其带入性身份发展和其他LGB相关经历。这些优势和弱点可能会对LGB个人的性认同发展、健康和适应产生深远的影响。在这里,我将重点介绍一组源自依恋的优点和弱点。最后,我要强调依恋在LGB个人生活中的重要性,并需要确定可能具有同样重要影响的其他发展过程。
The empirical literature on lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) individuals has predominantly focused on sexual-orientation disparities between LGB and heterosexual individuals on health and adaptation, as well as on the role of gay-related or minority stress in the health and adaptation of LGB individuals. Aside from demographic control variables, the initial predictor is a marker of sexual orientation or LGB-related experience (e.g., minority stress). Missing are potential strengths and vulnerabilities that LGB individuals develop over time and bring to bear on their sexual identity development and other LGB-related experiences. Those strengths and vulnerabilities may have profound consequences for the sexual identity development, health, and adaptation of LGB individuals. Here, I focus on one such set of strengths and vulnerabilities derived from attachment. I conclude by emphasizing the importance of attachment in the lives of LGB individuals and the need to identify other developmental processes that may be equally consequential.
