Overview

Observational study examined validity of internalized homonegativity measure in LGBTQ+ individuals, suggesting broad applicability.

Key Points

  • The study found strong support for the unidimensionality of the 7-item internalized homonegativity measure.
  • Analysis demonstrated support for cross-linguistic validity between German- and French-speaking respondents in Switzerland.
  • Discriminant validity was established, linking higher internalized homonegativity scores with depression and poor self-reported health.
  • Further research is needed to enhance linguistic validity for bisexual and transgender populations.
