However, there is a lack of literature investigating the impact of different lifestyle/psychosocial factors, outside of minority stress, on the negative relationship between being a sexual/gender identity minority and sleep quality. The current study aims to help fill critical gaps in the literature by looking at the effects generalized stress, COVID-19-related stress, social support, and sleep hygiene have on this relationship.MethodsTwo hundred and seventy-three participants (74 LGBTQ+;199 cishet), recruited online, completed a series of questionnaires assessing sleep quality, sleep hygiene, generalized stress, minority stress, COVID-19-related stress, and social support.ResultsAnalyses showed that LGBTQ + participants reported worse sleep quality, higher levels of generalized stress and COVID-19 stress, and smaller social networks than their cishet peers. Generalized stress fully mediated the relationship between sexual/gender identity and sleep while sleep hygiene partially mediated the relationship between generalized stress and sleep quality. Social support and COVID-19-related stress did not moderate the relationship between generalized stress and sleep.ConclusionWorse sleep quality in LGBTQ + than cishet adults is explained by differences in generalized stress and sleep hygiene. Stress management and sleep hygiene interventions may help prevent the negative associations between being LGBTQ + and poor sleep quality.","PeriodicalId":46675,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gay & Lesbian Mental Health","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90347371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Italian language must adapt to this new social complexity, encouraging gender-neutral pronouns and suffixes. Method As a new Italian proposal, Vera Gheno recommended the use of the “schwa” (ə) as a neutral suffix in written and spoken language, to promote greater inclusivity, while avoiding the overextended masculine. other Western languages, such as English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Swedish, have adopted neutral pronouns and suffixes as standard linguistic practice, thereby improving the well-being of non-binary individuals. Results This letter to the editor aims at discussing the clinical relevance of using the schwa to refer to non-binary people. the “Be as You Are” Clinical research Center for the study of sexual orientations and gender identities of Sapienza University of Rome supports the schwa’s use in respect of non-binary patients. Conclusion The schwa may make the Italian language more respectful of everyone’s gender identities. evidence shows that use of a neutral pronoun may reduce gender dysphoria and encourage the development of gender euphoria, characterized by positive feelings (i.e., joy, pride) toward one’s non-binary identity.","PeriodicalId":46675,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gay & Lesbian Mental Health","volume":"5 1","pages":"248 - 253"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85807080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
