INTERNALIZED HOMOPHOBIA MEDIATING THE RELATIONSHIP OF SELF-CONCEALMENT ON DEPRESSION IN LGB OLDER ADULTS
Overview
This study investigates how internalized homophobia mediates the link between sexual orientation self-concealment and depression in 301 LGB older adults. The authors report that internalized homophobia fully mediates this relationship, suggesting that concealing one's identity contributes to depressive symptoms through this mechanism. The resource notes that these findings may assist clinicians in understanding underlying factors and suggests cognitive restructuring as a potential intervention approach.
