Abstract

Sexual Minority (SM) individuals who are victims of stigma have reported higher levels of traumatic shame experiences and psychopathology symptoms (depression and social anxiety) when compared to heterosexual individuals. Self-compassion and social support have been described as protective factors. This study aimed to explore the mediating role of self-compassion and social support in the relationship between shame felt in traumatic experiences and psychopathology symptoms in a sample of SM individuals. The sample was composed of 264 adult SM individuals who reported traumatic shame experiences (56% men, 36% women, and 8% nonbinary). Correlations between variables were significant and ranged from very weak to moderate. Two models were performed, one for each dependent variable (depression and social anxiety symptoms). The mediating models revealed different results: compassionate actions was a significant mediator in the relationship of shame in traumatic experiences with depression symptoms and social anxiety symptoms, social support from friends had the same role on the prediction of depression, and social support from the family was a significant mediator on the prediction of social anxiety symptoms. These results suggest the importance of cultivating compassionate actions and promoting social support in intervention programs with SM individuals with early traumatic shame experiences, to target depression and social anxiety symptoms.
羞耻经历与心理病理学:自我同情和社会支持在性少数群体中的中介作用
与异性恋者相比,性少数群体(SM)是污名的受害者,他们报告的创伤羞耻经历和精神病理学症状(抑郁和社交焦虑)水平更高。自我同情和社会支持被描述为保护因素。本研究旨在探讨自我同情和社会支持在SM个体创伤经历中的羞耻感与精神病理学症状之间的中介作用。该样本由264名成年SM个体组成,他们报告了创伤羞耻经历(56%为男性,36%为女性,8%为非二进制)。变量之间的相关性非常显著,从非常弱到中等不等。进行了两个模型,每个因变量一个(抑郁和社交焦虑症状)。中介模型揭示了不同的结果:同情行为是创伤经历中羞耻感与抑郁症状和社交焦虑症状关系的重要中介,朋友的社会支持对抑郁的预测作用相同,家庭的社会支持是社交焦虑症状预测的重要中介。这些结果表明,在对有早期创伤羞耻经历的SM个体的干预计划中,培养同情行动和促进社会支持的重要性,以针对抑郁和社交焦虑症状。
