INTRODUCTION: Sexual and gender minority (SGM) adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are identity-based forms of early life adversity. Exposure to SGM ACEs is associated with increased odds of depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder in SGM adults. The purpose of this study was to further test a revised version of the measure in a U.S. sample with more robust and clinically relevant mental health outcomes.
METHODS: In May and June 2022, a national sample of SGM adults (N=4,445) was recruited from a Qualtrics Panel to complete a 20-minute online survey that included questions regarding ACEs, SGM ACEs, depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to examine factor structure. Multivariable regression was used to assess criterion validity, and a sensitivity analysis was conducted. Data were analyzed in February 2023.
RESULTS: Respondents indicate that vicarious trauma (81%) and school bullying (67%) were the most common experiences and that all SGM ACEs were frequently occurring before adulthood. Confirmatory factor analysis determined a 1-factor solution. Participants with more SGM adverse childhood experiences exposure had worse anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms (β=0.16, β=0.18, β=0.26, respectively, p<0.0001) after controlling for ACEs exposure and demographic factors. A sensitivity analysis indicated that estimates were similar in terms of magnitude and direction.
CONCLUSIONS: SGM ACEs commonly and frequently occur before adulthood and impact adult SGM mental health. Overall, the measure had good-to-excellent psychometric properties. Future research should consider integrating SGM ACEs and Minority Stress Theory.
