You Belong and You Matter: An Exploration of Self-injurious Thoughts and Behaviors in LGTBQ+ Individuals
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Supportive Messages, Control
In brief
Individuals with minoritized sexual and gender identities (i.e., LGBTQ+ individuals) are at a greater risk for self-injurious thoughts and behaviors than their cisgender, straight peers (Haas et al., 2010; Liu et al., 2017; Gorse, 2022). There is a dearth of empirically supported interventions for self-injurious thoughts and behaviors (Linehan, 2008; Riblet et al., 2017), and those that exist are not tailored to people in the LGBTQ+ community (Gorse, 2022; Haas et al., 2010). Therefore, the aim of this study is to test the effectiveness of a brief LGBTQ+ affirming text message intervention in reducing self-injurious thoughts and behaviors among LGBTQ+ individuals.
