Longitudinal associations between peer factors and suicidal thoughts and behaviors among sexual minority women
Journal of Psychiatric Research Jun 16, 2021
Dorrell K, Berona J, Hipwell AE, et al. - This study was carried out to assess longitudinal relationships between peer factors and suicidal thoughts and behaviors among sexual minority women. Researchers used 6 years of data drawn from a community sample of women (N = 2,078; 26% sexual minority) to examine rates of suicidality in early adulthood, adolescent peer influences on later suicidal ideation and behavior, and whether sexual minority status moderated the impact of peer influences on suicidality. The research indicates the importance of peer experiences in late adolescence for suicidality during the transition to young adulthood, and how such relations vary by sexual minority status.
