家庭支持和拒绝与性少数妇女（SMW）的健康结果相关。我们研究了一个社会生态发展模型中的年轻成年SMW，测试是否身份风险因素或外向家庭与家庭拒绝互动，以预测社区连通性和集体自尊。年龄在18-25岁（M = 21.4; SD = 2.1）之间的女同性恋和双性恋女性（N = 843; 57%双性恋）完成了基线和12个月的在线调查。样本被确定为白色（54.2%）、多种族背景（16.6%）、非洲裔美国人（9.6%）和亚裔/亚裔美国人（3.1%）; 10.2%支持西班牙裔/拉丁裔。在家庭关系中，拒绝率从18%到41%不等。纵向回归表明，当外向家庭的增加，SMW在高度拒绝家庭表现出弹性，找到连接和尊重在更大程度上比非拒绝同龄人的性少数群体社区。但是，当耻辱的关注，隐瞒动机，和其他身份的风险因素增加了一年，高家庭拒绝并没有影响社区的连通性和SMW报告集体自尊较低。少数种族的法定最低工资报告较低的社区联系，但不降低集体自尊。家庭可能会缓冲或加剧健康不良的社会风险。调查结果强调了LGBTQ社区的保护作用和法定最低工资及其家庭的规范弹性。
Family support and rejection are associated with health outcomes among sexual minority women (SMW). We examined a social ecological development model among young adult SMW, testing whether identity risk factors or outness to family interacted with family rejection to predict community connectedness and collective self-esteem. Lesbian and bisexual women (N = 843; 57 % bisexual) between the ages of 18–25 (M = 21.4; SD = 2.1) completed baseline and 12-month online surveys. The sample identified as White (54.2 %), multiple racial backgrounds (16.6 %), African American (9.6 %) and Asian/Asian American (3.1 %); 10.2 % endorsed a Hispanic/Latina ethnicity. Rejection ranged from 18 to 41 % across family relationships. Longitudinal regression indicated that when outness to family increased, SMW in highly rejecting families demonstrated resilience by finding connections and esteem in sexual minority communities to a greater extent than did non-rejected peers. But, when stigma concerns, concealment motivation, and other identity risk factors increased over the year, high family rejection did not impact community connectedness and SMW reported lower collective self-esteem. Racial minority SMW reported lower community connectedness, but not lower collective self-esteem. Families likely buffer or exacerbate societal risks for ill health. Findings highlight the protective role of LGBTQ communities and normative resilience among SMW and their families.
