---|---|
Experimental: Expressive Writing (EW)
Expressive Writing (EW) prompts individuals to write about personally stressful events, potentially enabling cognitive processing of unresolved, psychological and physiological stressors.
|
The EW intervention will utilize the procedures piloted earlier with gay and bisexual male college students in urban and rural regions of the US.
In this condition, participants will be instructed to write for 20 minutes across three consecutive days in a free-form manner about the most stressful or traumatic LGB-related event that they have encountered.
|
Experimental: Self-Affirmation (SA)
Self-Affirmation (SA) interventions prompt individuals to write advice to a (hypothetical) similarly stigmatized person regarding how best to cope with stigma-related stress.
By affirming one's own stigmatized identity through the process of helping another similarly stigmatized person.
|
The SA intervention will ask participants to read a brief description, over the course of 3 consecutive days, of a (hypothetical) LGB youth who is facing minority stress.
Each day's description will contain a different LGB youth facing a different stigma-related stressor derived from Phase 1 and 2 interviews.
Participants will then be asked to write a letter for 20 minutes to advise the LGB youth how best to cope with minority stress drawing on their personal experiences.
|
Placebo-Komparator: Control
Participants randomly assigned to the control condition will be asked to write about what they have done since waking up that morning for 20 minutes across 3 consecutive days.
|
Participants randomly assigned to the control condition will be asked to write about what they have done since waking up that morning for 20 minutes across 3 consecutive days.
This control matches the time and activity of the EW and SA arms and has been implemented across dozens of EW and SA studies.

Maßnahmenbeschreibung |
Zeitfenster |
---|---|---|
Change in Depression.
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Depression will be measured using the Center for Epidemiological Studies -- Depression Scale (CESD).
An overall depression score is computed as the sum of 20 items, with items 3, 11, 14, and 16 reversed.
In cases with internally missing data (items not answered), the sums are computed after imputation of the missing values: # items on scale / # actually answered, multiplied by the sum obtained from the answered items.
A range of 0-60, with higher scores indicating more depressive symptomatology during the past week.
|
Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Change in Psychological Distress.
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Psychological Distress will be measured using the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI).
The BSI consists of 18 items scored 0-4.
Items are averaged to yield a final score of 0-4.
The higher the score, the greater the psychological distress.
|
Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Change in Anxiety.
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Anxiety will be measured using the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI).

|
Change in Suicidality - Suicidal Ideation.
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Suicidal ideation will be measured using the Suicidal Ideation Attributes Scale (SIDAS) .
Total SIDAS scores are calculated as the sum of the five items, with controllability reverse scored (10=0, 9=1, …, 0=10).

Total scores of 8 or more are recommended as indicators of hazardous and harmful alcohol use, as well as possible alcohol dependence.
(A cut-off score of 10 will provide greater specificity but at the expense of sensitivity.)
The score range is 0-40.
Higher scores indicate greater hazardous drinking.
|
Baseline, Post Intervention, 3 Months
|
Change in Drug Use.
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.

|
Change in Risk Taking
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Risk taking impulse will be assessed using the Columbia Card Task.
Participants are presented with 32 face-down cards.
Some of these cards are "gain cards" (which add either +10 or +30 points to the participant's total score) and some of these cards are "loss cards" (which subtract either -250 or -750 points from the participant's total score).
On each trial, the participant may turn over as many cards as desired until a loss card is encountered or the participant chooses to not turn over any more cards.
As a participant turns over more cards, the probability of encountering a loss card increases.
Therefore, turning over more cards constitutes greater risk taking.
|
Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Change in Minority Stress (Rejection)
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
To assess rejection as a form of minority stress, the Gay-Related Rejection Sensitivity Scale (GRRS) will be used.The Gay-related rejection sensitivity scale was adapted for this study to be gender-inclusive and has 12 items.
Scale range 1-36, where higher scores indicate greater rejection sensitivity based on one's sexual orientation (worse outcome).

This tool has 4 items- 2 that deal with mother/parent 1/closest female guardian, 2 that deal with father/parent 2/closest male guardian.
The second item for each parent asks about their attitude towards the respondent's sexual orientation on a scale from 1 (completely tolerant and accepting) to 7 (completely hostile and rejecting).
Scores for maternal and paternal attitude should be averaged for each participant.
The score has a range from 1-7, where higher scores indicate greater rejection from parents (worse outcome).
|
Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Change in Outness
Zeitfenster: Baseline, Post Intervention (day 5), and 3 Months.
|
Participants openness about one's sexual orientation will be assessed using the Outness Inventory (OI).
A respondent is asked to rate how open they are with various people in society (from family to strangers) on an 11 item questionnaire.
The scale for responding is 0-7- where 7 indicates that a person is completely open with their sexual orientation status.
The scale score is obtained by averaging the 11 items for a score range of 0-7, where higher scores indicate more openness about respondents' sexual orientation in different domains of their lives/different people.
0 indicates that an item does not apply/ there is no such group of people/person in the respondents' life.
A score of 7 would indicate that one is completely open or "out" with respect to sexual orientation.
