Using data from the first national probability sample of Black, White, and Latinx sexual minority people in the United States, we examined whether and how sexual identity development timing and pacing differs across demographic subgroups at the intersections of cohort, sex, sexual identity, and race/ethnicity. Among a sample of 1,491 participants aged 18-60 from 3 distinct birth cohorts, we measured participants' ages of sexual identity development milestones, including first same-sex attraction, first self-realization of a sexual minority identity, first same-sex sexual behavior, first disclosure to a straight friend, and first disclosure to a family member. Participants from more recent cohorts reported earlier and accelerated pacing of milestones relative to those from older cohorts. Subgroups defined by sex and sexual identity varied in milestone timing and pacing, with gay males reporting an earlier onset of some milestones than other subgroups. Those who used newer identity labels (e.g., pansexual, queer) reported younger ages of milestones relative to bisexual participants but similar ages to lesbian and gay participants. Black and Latinx participants reported some milestones at younger ages than White participants. Race-stratified models testing groups at the intersection of cohort, sex, and sexual identity revealed subgroup differences in ages of first disclosure to family, as well as differences in the time between self-realization, same-sex sexual behavior, and disclosure to a straight friend. The results suggest substantial variation in the developmental timing and pacing of milestones across social identities and the need to further examine how milestone timing is related to identity, stress, and health.

三代性少数群体的性别认同发展里程碑:全国概率样本。



使用来自美国黑人、白人和拉丁裔性少数群体的第一个全国概率样本的数据,我们研究了不同人口亚组在队列、性别、性认同和性别交叉点上性认同发展时间和节奏是否以及如何存在差异。种族/民族。在来自 3 个不同出生群体的 1,491 名 18-60 岁参与者样本中,我们测量了参与者的性认同发展里程碑的年龄,包括第一次同性吸引、第一次自我实现性少数群体身份、第一次同性性行为,首先向异性恋朋友披露,然后首先向家庭成员披露。与较老的队列相比,最近队列的参与者报告了更早且更快的里程碑进度。由性别和性身份定义的亚组在里程碑时间和节奏上有所不同,男性同性恋者报告的某些里程碑比其他亚组更早出现。那些使用较新身份标签(例如,泛性恋、酷儿)的人报告的里程碑年龄相对于双性恋参与者而言更年轻,但与女同性恋和男同性恋参与者的年龄相似。黑人和拉丁裔参与者比白人参与者更年轻地报告了一些里程碑。种族分层模型在队列、性别和性身份交叉点上测试群体,揭示了首次向家人披露年龄的亚组差异,以及自我实现、同性性行为和向伴侣披露之间的时间差异。直的朋友。结果表明,不同社会身份的发展时间和里程碑的节奏存在很大差异,需要进一步研究里程碑时间与身份、压力和健康的关系。 (PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA,保留所有权利)。
