女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人和酷儿(LGBTQ)青年具有相当大的适应能力。积极的媒体表现可能会调解消极的经历并培养自尊,但弹性与传统线下和新在线媒体之间的关系仍未得到充分解决。这项对LGBTQ青年(n = 19)基于媒体的弹性建设活动的理论基础探索表明,媒体使用使四个主题成为可能:通过逃避主义应对;感觉更强;反击;寻找和培养社区。数据被嵌入到专题调查结果的证据中,并纳入参与者的声音。在当代LGBTQ青年的生态框架中考虑媒体的重要性,以捕捉他们的弹性。
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) youth have the potential for considerable resilience. Positive media representations may mediate negative experiences and foster self-esteem, yet the relationship between resilience and both traditional offline and new online media remains underaddressed for this population. This grounded-theory exploration of media-based resilience-building activities by LGBTQ youth (n = 19) indicated four themes that media use enabled: coping through escapism; feeling stronger; fighting back; and finding and fostering community. Data are embedded to evidence thematic findings and incorporate participant voices. The importance of considering the media within contemporary LGBTQ youth's ecological framework to capture their resilience is considered.
