摘要

In general, religiosity is associated with positive health outcomes, though this association is not observed among LGBTQ + individuals. Yet, nearly half of LGBTQ + Americans consider themselves religious. Clarifying the resilience resources used by this population may help inform targeted health promotion interventions that leverage strengths to support health, including social and mental health. This review identifies resilience resources used by religious LGBTQ + people in the United States using Dunkel-Schetter and Dolbier’s Resilience Taxonomy. Studies were included if they (1) sampled exclusively LGBTQ + people, all or a disaggregated subsection of whom identified either being religious and/or voluntarily participating in religious practice, and (2) included discussion of resilience among these participants. Results from 22 studies found resources for supporting resilience among LGBTQ + religious Americans, including the process of identity integration, personal cognitive or dispositional skills, social supports from family and faith communities, and cultural and structural impacts. Future research is required to assess how these resources may be integrated into interventions for LGBTQ + health by organizations uniquely situated within communities to do so, and this research may benefit from taking a broad taxonomic approach to understanding resilience within socioecological context.
