我们通过使用身份叙事来关注女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性酷儿 (LGBTQ) 犹太裔美国人的秘密身份。三十一人参加了有关他们身份谈判决定的叙述性访谈。身份传播理论通过展示身份层和关键要素的相互渗透如何在参与者的生活中造成变化和冲突,从而使他们必须协商他们的 LGBTQ 犹太身份,从而构建了调查框架。分析揭示了与自我认知、经历、他人认知以及 LGBTQ 和犹太人身份有关的冲突,其中许多冲突都围绕着疏离问题。当他们为一种或两种身份要素寻求支持社区时,他们的生活中就一直存在身份差距出现并产生很大程度上负面结果的可能性。这项研究对于个人和社区对多重和污名化身份的支持具有重要意义。
We focused on the closetable identities of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered queer (LGBTQ) Jewish Americans through the use of identity narratives. Thirty-one people participated in narrative interviews about their identity negotiation decisions. The Communication Theory of Identity framed the inquiry by showing how the interpenetrations of identity layers and critical elements created changes and conflict in participants' lives that necessitated negotiating their LGBTQ Jewish identity. Analyses revealed conflicts related to self-perception, experiences, perceptions of others, and enactments of being LGBTQ and Jewish, many of which revolved around issues of alienation. The potential for identity gaps to emerge and produce largely negative outcomes was ever present in their lives as they sought supportive communities for one or both identity elements. This study has implications for individual and community support of multiple and stigmatized identities.
