Abstract Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) college students report significantly higher rates of sexual violence victimization than their heterosexual counterparts. The additional stressors (e.g., discrimination) that sexual minority populations face may impact their decision to disclose victimization and anticipated social reactions. Therefore, we compared rates of disclosure and anticipated social reactions of lesbian/gay, bisexual, and heterosexual community college students (n = 677) who reported at least one incident of sexual violence victimization since enrolling at their institution. Students who identified as bisexual reported victimization at higher rates (63.8%) than students who identified as lesbian/gay and heterosexual and were significantly more likely to disclose victimization. Bisexual survivors reported significantly lower well-being outcomes (i.e., mental health and life satisfaction) than heterosexual survivors. However, lesbian/gay survivors reported anticipating more negative social reactions than heterosexual survivors. These findings highlight the importance of offering support services to LGB students at community colleges. Implications for future research are discussed.

女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋社区大学生性暴力受害情况和预期社会反应的披露

摘要 女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋 (LGB) 大学生报告的性暴力受害率明显高于异性恋学生。性少数群体面临的额外压力（例如歧视）可能会影响他们披露受害情况和预期社会反应的决定。因此，我们比较了女同性恋/男同性恋、双性恋和异性恋社区大学生（n = 677）的披露率和预期的社会反应，这些学生自入学以来至少报告了一次性暴力受害事件。被认定为双性恋的学生报告受害率 (63.8%) 高于认定为女同性恋/男同性恋和异性恋的学生，并且更可能披露受害情况。双性恋幸存者报告的幸福结果（即心理健康和生活满意度）明显低于异性恋幸存者。然而，女同性恋/男同性恋幸存者报告比异性恋幸存者预计会有更多的负面社会反应。这些发现强调了为社区学院的 LGB 学生提供支持服务的重要性。讨论了对未来研究的影响。
