Identidad Sexual, Discriminación y Consecuencias desde la Psicología Positiva en Lesbianas, Gais y Bisexuales

Abstract

Los estudios muestran que la orientación sexual no heterosexual lleva consigo un gran estigma, lo que implica más conductas violentas hacia las personas LGB que heterosexuales y esto tiene una serie de consecuencias que pueden ser negativas (trastorno de estrés postraumático, TEPT) o positivas (resiliencia y crecimiento postraumático, CPT). Este estudio analiza la relación entre variables independientes (discriminación diaria, la identidad LGB, el acoso escolar previo, la pertenencia a alguna asociación LGB, el “salir del armario” y la aceptación y apoyo recibidas al hacerlo) y dependientes (síntomas de TEPT y desarrollo de resiliencia y CPT) relevantes en personas LGB. Se ha realizado un muestreo por conveniencia analizado los datos de 164 participantes (98 mujeres, 61 hombres y 5 personas de otros géneros; 62 homosexuales, 59 heterosexuales, 37 bisexuales y 4 de otras orientaciones). Los resultados han mostrado que: 1) hay mayor índice de TEPT y CPT en personas LGB que heterosexuales; 2) resiliencia y CPT están relacionados; 3) mayor discriminación diaria y miedo a sufrirla en LGB que en heterosexuales y en mujeres que en hombres LGB; 4) las variables de identidad LGB se relacionan con la probabilidad de “salir del armario”; 5) salen más del armario las personas homosexuales que bisexuales y hay diferencia entre géneros; 6) diferencias en variables de identidad en personas homosexuales y bisexuales; y 7) relación entre variables y TEPT, CPT y resiliencia. Estos resultados son interesantes en la práctica clínica con pacientes LGB para conocer qué pudo haberles afectado y qué trabajar para desarrollar resiliencia y CPT.

Studies show that non-heterosexual orientation carries a great stigma, which implies more violent behavior towards LGB people, with consequences that can be negative (post-traumatic stress disorder, PTSD) or positive (resilience and posttraumatic growth, PTG). This study analyzes the relationship between independent variables (daily discrimination, LGB identity, prior bullying, membership in an LGB association, “outness”, acceptance and support) and dependents (symptoms of PTSD and development of resilience and PTG) relevant in LGB people. A convenience sampling was carried out, analyzing data from 164 participants (98 women, 61 men and 5 other gender; 62 homosexuals, 59 heterosexuals, 37 bisexuals and 4 other orientation). Results have shown that: 1) there is a higher rate of PTSD and PTG in LGB people than heterosexuals; 2) Resilience and CPT are related; 3) greater daily discrimination and fear of suffering it in LGB than in heterosexuals and women than in LGB men; 4) LGB identity variables are related to the probability of outness; 5) there is a higer rate of outness in homosexuals than in bisexuals and between genders; 6) differences in identity variables in homosexual and bisexual people; and 7) relationship between LGB variables and PTSD, PTG and resilience. These results are interesting in clinical practice with LGB patients to know what might have affected them and what to work to develop resilience and PTG.
