Abstract

Queer adolescents experience compounding complications especially when they are estranged from their parents. Findings from a sample of 40 estranged queer adolescents revealed four triggers, five resilience processes, and three co-occurring relationships between the triggers and processes. Based on these findings, we advance the communication theory of resilience by (a) illustrating resilience enactments with an adolescent population, (b) introducing a new facet of putting alternative logics to work, and (c) arguing how access to LGBTQ+ vocabulary and embeddedness within the LGBTQ+ community can facilitate more and less resilient enactments. We also extend a new qualitative method, thematic co-occurrence analysis, to illuminate thematic ubiquity and inverse relationships between themes. Practical applications for primary/secondary school curriculum, counselors, and public policy are discussed.

通过建立韧性克服障碍：酷儿青少年如何应对与父母的疏远

酷儿青少年经历了复杂的问题，尤其是当他们与父母疏远的时候。从40个疏远的酷儿青少年样本中发现了四个诱因，五个恢复过程，以及诱因和过程之间的三个共同发生的关系。基于这些发现，我们通过(a)说明青少年群体的弹性行为，(b)引入替代性逻辑的新方面，以及(c)讨论LGBTQ+词汇的获取和LGBTQ+社区的嵌入如何促进或多或少的弹性行为，来推进弹性的沟通理论。我们还扩展了一种新的定性方法——主位共现分析，以阐明主位的普遍性和主位之间的反比关系。讨论了中小学课程、辅导员和公共政策的实际应用。

期刊介绍： Empirical research in communication began in the 20th century, and there are more researchers pursuing answers to communication questions today than at any other time. The editorial goal of Communication Research is to offer a special opportunity for reflection and change in the new millennium. To qualify for publication, research should, first, be explicitly tied to some form of communication; second, be theoretically driven with results that inform theory; third, use the most rigorous empirical methods; and fourth, be directly linked to the most important problems and issues facing humankind. Critieria do not privilege any particular context; indeed, we believe that the key problems facing humankind occur in close relationships, groups, organiations, and cultures.
