Abstract

Purposeof review: The prevalence of problematic substance use is disproportionately higher among sexual and gender minority (SGM) adults compared to adults in the general population. mHealth as a treatment modality could reduce barriers to accessing substance use treatments among SGM populations. Through a qualitative literature search, the current narrative review aimed to understand the lived experiences of SGM individuals who use substances and to synthesize recommendations made in the literature to inform future mHealth interventions.

Recent findings: Positive and negative reinforcement motives were prominent reasons for substance use, which included SGM identity expression and conformity motives. Individual- and system-level treatment barriers included a lack of safe and nonjudgmental environment, shame and stigma, and limited knowledge about treatment options. Barriers were directly linked to the reported substance use treatment needs in this population.

Summary: On-demand app features, real-time intervention and assessment, and anonymity should be considered in future mHealth trials.

针对性少数群体和性别少数群体（SGM）个体药物使用的mHealth干预措施的考虑因素和建议：过去5年的叙述性综述。

审查目的：与普通人群中的成年人相比，性少数和性别少数（SGM）成年人中问题药物使用的流行率不成比例地高。mHealth作为一种治疗模式可以减少SGM人群获得药物使用治疗的障碍。通过定性文献检索，目前的叙述性综述旨在了解使用药物的SGM个体的生活经历，并综合文献中提出的建议，为未来的mHealth干预措施提供信息。最近的研究结果：积极和消极强化动机是物质使用的主要原因，包括SGM身份表达和从众动机。个人和系统层面的治疗障碍包括缺乏安全和非评判性的环境、羞耻感和耻辱感，以及对治疗选择的了解有限。障碍与该人群报告的物质使用治疗需求直接相关。总结：在未来的mHealth试验中，应考虑随需应变的应用程序功能、实时干预和评估以及匿名性。补充信息：在线版本包含补充材料，可访问10.1007/s40429-023-00497-0。
