Abstract

Using data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2017-2022 we estimated adjusted and unadjusted differences in self-reported number of poor mental health days (past month) between gender minority (GM) and cisgender adults. We document that the disparity is largest among younger individuals. Among 18- to 23-year-olds, GM adults report on average 14.5 days of poor mental health, compared to 6.3 days for cisgender individuals, yielding an unadjusted disparity of 8.2 days [95% CI: 7.15, 9.24]. This disparity decreases with age - among people over the age of 73, the observed difference was 1.7 days [95% CI: 0.13, 3.27].

性别认同的心理健康年龄梯度。

使用2017-2022年行为风险因素监测系统（BRFSS）的数据，我们估计了性别少数群体（GM）和顺性成年人自我报告的心理健康不良天数（过去一个月）的调整和未调整差异。我们发现，这种差异在年轻人中最大。在18至23岁的人群中，转基因成年人报告的心理健康状况不佳的平均时间为14.5天，而顺性别个体为6.3天，产生了8.2天的未调整差异[95% CI: 7.15, 9.24]。这种差异随着年龄的增长而减小——在73岁以上的人群中，观察到的差异为1.7天[95% CI: 0.13, 3.27]。

期刊介绍： Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology is intended to provide a medium for the prompt publication of scientific contributions concerned with all aspects of the epidemiology of psychiatric disorders - social, biological and genetic. In addition, the journal has a particular focus on the effects of social conditions upon behaviour and the relationship between psychiatric disorders and the social environment. Contributions may be of a clinical nature provided they relate to social issues, or they may deal with specialised investigations in the fields of social psychology, sociology, anthropology, epidemiology, health service research, health economies or public mental health. We will publish papers on cross-cultural and trans-cultural themes. We do not publish case studies or small case series. While we will publish studies of reliability and validity of new instruments of interest to our readership, we will not publish articles reporting on the performance of established instruments in translation. Both original work and review articles may be submitted.
