Abstract

Purpose/objective: Examine the prevalence of mental health issues, receipt of mental health treatment, and self-reported unmet need for mental health treatment among U.S. adults with and without disabilities by lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT) status during the pandemic.

Research method/design: Logistic regression and predicted probabilities using nationally representative, cross-sectional, household survey data from the U.S. Census Bureau's weekly Household Pulse Survey conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic (July 21, 2021-October 11, 2021).

Results: Controlling for age, educational attainment, employment, health insurance coverage, and race/ethnicity, adults with disabilities, regardless of LGBT status, had statistically significantly increased odds of having mental health issues, receiving mental health treatment, and reporting the unmet need for mental health treatment compared to adults without disabilities who were not LGBT. Adjusted rates of receipt of mental treatment ranged from a low of 9% for persons without disabilities who were not LGBT to 27% for persons with disabilities who were LGBT, a gap of 18 percentage points. An even larger percentage point gap (22 percentage points) was noted in the unmet need for treatment between persons without disabilities who were not LGBT (9%) and persons with disabilities who were LGBT (31%).

Conclusions/implications: These results highlight the need for expansions of the mental health service delivery system in the United States as well as a prioritization of accessibility and inclusiveness practices. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).

2021年残疾成人女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋或变性人的心理健康经历。

目的/目的:调查大流行期间美国男女同性恋、双性恋或跨性别(LGBT)成年人中心理健康问题的流行程度、接受心理健康治疗的情况，以及自我报告的未满足心理健康治疗需求。研究方法/设计:使用2019冠状病毒病大流行期间(2021年7月21日至2021年10月11日)美国人口普查局每周家庭脉搏调查中具有全国代表性的横截面家庭调查数据进行Logistic回归和预测概率。结果:控制年龄、受教育程度、就业、健康保险覆盖率和种族/民族，与非LGBT的无残疾成年人相比，残疾成年人，无论其是否为LGBT，有心理健康问题、接受心理健康治疗和报告未满足心理健康治疗需求的几率在统计上显著增加。调整后的精神治疗接受率从非LGBT的无残疾人士的低9%到LGBT的残疾人士的27%，差距为18个百分点。在非LGBT的非残疾人(9%)和LGBT的残疾人(31%)之间，未满足的治疗需求差距更大(22个百分点)。结论/启示:这些结果强调了扩大美国精神卫生服务提供系统的必要性，以及优先考虑可及性和包容性实践。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c) 2023 APA，版权所有)。
