Abstract

In general (i.e. in heteronormative and cisgendered samples), authenticity appears protective against threats to well-being. Authenticity may also, in part, protect well-being against the minority stressors experienced by sexually minoritized (LGB; lesbian, gay, and bisexual) individuals. In this scoping review, we examined the relation between authenticity and well-being in LGB samples experiencing minority stress. We hypothesized that (i) LGB minority stress relates to decreased authenticity (i.e. inauthenticity), (ii) authenticity relates to increased well-being, and (iii) authenticity influences the relation between LGB minority stress and well-being. We identified 17 studies (N = 4,653) from systematic searches across Medline, ProQuest, PsycINFO, and Scopus using terms related to sexual identity, minority stress, authenticity, and well-being. In almost all studies, proximal (but not distal) stress was associated with inauthenticity, and inauthenticity with decreased well-being. In all but one study, the association between proximal stress and well-being was associated with inauthenticity. Although these results are consistent with our hypotheses, the included studies were limited in scope and heterogenous in their methods, instruments, and samples, restricting conclusions regarding mediation or moderation. The results require replication, well-powered direct comparisons between LGB and non-LGB samples, and consideration of the varied ways authenticity can be conceptualized and measured.

女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性者的真实性、幸福感和少数群体压力:范围审查》。
一般来说(即在异性恋和顺性别样本中),真实性似乎对幸福感的威胁具有保护作用。真实性也可能在一定程度上保护性少数群体(LGB;女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋)免受少数群体压力的影响。在本次范围界定综述中,我们研究了经历少数群体压力的 LGB 样本中真实性与幸福感之间的关系。我们假设:(i) LGB 少数群体压力与真实性下降(即不真实)有关;(ii) 真实性与幸福感增加有关;(iii) 真实性影响 LGB 少数群体压力与幸福感之间的关系。我们通过在 Medline、ProQuest、PsycINFO 和 Scopus 中使用与性认同、少数群体压力、真实性和幸福感相关的术语进行系统检索,确定了 17 项研究(N = 4,653)。在几乎所有的研究中,近端(而非远端)压力与不真实感相关,而不真实感与幸福感下降相关。除一项研究外,在其他所有研究中,近端压力与幸福感之间的关系都与不真实感有关。虽然这些结果与我们的假设一致,但所纳入的研究范围有限,而且研究方法、工具和样本也不尽相同,因此限制了对中介或调节作用的结论。我们需要对这些结果进行复制,在女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性者样本与非女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性者样本之间进行有力的直接比较,并考虑对真实性进行概念化和测量的各种方法。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Homosexuality is an internationally acclaimed, peer-reviewed publication devoted to publishing a wide variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary scholarship to foster a thorough understanding of the complexities, nuances, and the multifaceted aspects of sexuality and gender. The chief aim of the journal is to publish thought-provoking scholarship by researchers, community activists, and scholars who employ a range of research methodologies and who offer a variety of perspectives to continue shaping knowledge production in the arenas of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) studies and queer studies. The Journal of Homosexuality is committed to offering substantive, accessible reading to researchers and general readers alike in the hope of: spurring additional research, offering ideas to integrate into educational programs at schools, colleges & universities, or community-based organizations, and manifesting activism against sexual and gender prejudice (e.g., homophobia, biphobia and transphobia), including the promotion of sexual and gender justice.
