Description
Summary:Gender and sexual orientation diverse (GSD) individuals are at risk for negative social and psychological outcomes due to repeated marginalization. Identifying malleable individual factors to target in treatment may help buffer against societal risks. Latent profile analysis (LPA) explored associations between self-regulation, adverse, and resilience outcomes with personal identity among (n = 155) GSD adults. LPA showed three self-regulation profiles (high, medium, and low) which were associated with differences in social support, anxiety, and depression. Descriptive statistics of associations between intersectional identities and profiles are presented. Self-regulation may be an important indicator of risk and be used to promote resilience among GSD adults.
