摘要：
The purpose of this study was to compare rates of elevated levels of depression, anxiety, and stress among six different lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) subgroups (cisgender lesbians, cisgender gay males, cisgender bisexual females, cisgender bisexualmales, transgender females, and transgendermales). A total of 2,702 LGBT-identified individuals participated in the online study. While controlling for other demographic factors, rates of elevated levels of depression (p < 0.001), anxiety (p = 0.015), and stress (p < 0.001) all varied significantly between LGBT subgroups. Posthoc examinations of pairwise differences revealed substantial and unexpected variations, highlighting the importance of separately examining LGBT subgroups when consideringmental health outcomes.
