Thesis (Ph.D.)--Howard University, 2010.

Adolescence for African American gay, lesbian, and bisexual (GLB) adolescents is a complex developmental period as these individuals seek to create integrated identities while managing familial and societal pressures. They also often experience prolonged periods of distress (e.g. anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation) as they seek to create an integrated identity in a hostile environment (Lemoire & Chen, 2005). Consequently, GLB adolescents are often at risk for numerous psychological and mental health problems. Recent research suggests that a positive relationship exists between spirituality, religion, and mental health factors (e.g. psychological well-being, reduction in depressive symptomatology, and the instillation of hope during stress) (Koenig, 1998). For African American GLB adolescents, spiritual and religious beliefs may frequently serve as resources to help them negotiate or cope with life struggles. In fact, Miranti (1996) suggested that "the spiritual and/or religious dimensions inherent in each individual could possibly be the most salient cultural identity" (p.117). However, people can use a variety of coping mechanisms so spirituality may not be the most salient coping resource. The purpose of the current investigation was to explore the influence of spiritual coping in the lives of African American GLB adolescents as they integrate their multiple identities.

520 $a Adolescence for African American gay, lesbian, and bisexual (GLB) adolescents is a complex developmental period as these individuals seek to create integrated identities while managing familial and societal pressures. They also often experience prolonged periods of distress (e.g. anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation) as they seek to create an integrated identity in a hostile environment (Lemoire & Chen, 2005). Consequently, GLB adolescents are often at risk for numerous psychological and mental health problems. Recent research suggests that a positive relationship exists between spirituality, religion, and mental health factors (e.g. psychological well-being, reduction in depressive symptomatology, and the instillation of hope during stress) (Koenig, 1998). For African American GLB adolescents, spiritual and religious beliefs may frequently serve as resources to help them negotiate or cope with life struggles. In fact, Miranti (1996) suggested that "the spiritual and/or religious dimensions inherent in each individual could possibly be the most salient cultural identity" (p.117). However, people can use a variety of coping mechanisms so spirituality may not be the most salient coping resource. The purpose of the current investigation was to explore the influence of spiritual coping in the lives of African American GLB adolescents as they integrate their multiple identities.
520 $a Descriptive statistics, correlational analyses, and a multiple linear regression were used to describe or test the independent variables (wellness, positive and negative religious/spiritual coping, ethnic identity, other group orientation, centrality, oppressed minority, and personal and global homonegativity) and the hypotheses. The results indicated that adolescents who viewed race as more central to their identity had decreased feelings of internalized homophobia. In addition, both positive and negative religious/spiritual coping were correlated with personal homonegativity. No significant correlation was found between ethnic identity and positive and negative religious/spiritual coping. Lastly, none of the independent variables were significant predictors of psychological well-being. This suggests that for this sample of African American GLB adolescents additional undefined factors may have a critical role in how they integrate their multiple identities. Implications for counseling when working with African American gay, lesbian, and bisexual adolescents are discussed.
