Research suggests that LGBTQ+ adults, when compared to cis-heterosexual counterparts, have higher rates of chronic diseases as well as physical and mental health concerns; many of which can be prevented or mitigated through regular engagement with physical activity. However, LGBTQ+ individuals also experience unique and disproportionate barriers to physical activity, such as homophobia, transphobia, discrimination, and exclusion that complicate participation and exacerbate health disparities. The overall purpose of my dissertation was to develop a deeper understanding of how previous and current LGBTQ+ experiences within and across physical activity contexts influence current perceptions of, attitudes towards, and engagement in physical activity. In study 1, I explored past and present LGBTQ+ locker room experiences by thematically analyzing 1,067 responses to an open-ended response question. My first study's findings provide pivotal insight into how homophobia, transphobia, and fatphobia intersect within locker rooms and complicate access for LGBTQ+ adults. In study 2, I investigated how interpersonal relationships within sport influenced LGBTQ+ athletes' sporting experiences, as well as their later-in-life perceptions of physical activity, by analyzing 741 responses to the open-ended question, "how would you describe your past and/or current relationships with teammates, coaches, and other sports-related support staff?" Participant responses from my second study highlight how negative adolescent sporting experiences greatly influenced how participants currently viewed sport and physical activity contexts. Contrastingly, supportive relationships with coaches and teammates fostered feelings of relatedness among participants and helped establish LGBTQ+-inclusive sport contexts. Given that adolescent experiences played an influential role in how LGBTQ+ adults currently viewed physical activity, in study 3, I conducted a systematic scoping review of peer-reviewed literature exploring LGBTQ+ student experiences within physical education. The minimal literature (N = 8) retained for review highlight the present dearth of physical education research that includes LGBTQ+ participants. My third study's findings also illustrate how LGBTQ+ student experiences are greatly impacted by cis-heteronormativity which validates homophobia, transphobia, and prevalent (mis)gendering processes within physical education. In study 4, I explored experiences and conceptions of LGBTQ+ resilience within and across physical activity contexts through a series of online focus groups with LGBTQ+ adults (N = 36). Findings from my fourth study suggest that individual and community resilience significantly influence LGBTQ+ experiences and participation in physical activity. Previous research has predominantly focused on the unique stresses and barriers LGBTQ+ individuals experience within physical activity, however, my fourth study's findings also demonstrate the significance of LGBTQ+ resilience with respect to physical activity participation. Overall, my dissertation findings helped develop a stronger, more nuanced understanding of LGBTQ+ experiences within and across physical activity contexts. Specifically, youth experiences within sport and physical education greatly influenced how LGBTQ+ adults perceived and engaged with physical activity contexts. Negative youth experiences seemed to support aversion towards and avoidance of physical activity, whereas positive adolescent experiences, despite being rarer, seemed to encourage regular physical activity participation throughout adulthood. Subsequently, efforts are needed to improve overall LGBTQ+ youth experiences across physical activity contexts as well as improve LGBTQ+ adults' perceptions of and relationships with physical activity.

520 $a Les etudes demontrent que les adultes LGBTQ+ ont un taux plus eleve de maladies chroniques par rapport a leurs homologues cis-heterosexuels ainsi que plus de problemes de sante physique et mentale, dont beaucoup pourraient etre evites ou attenues en pratiquant regulierement une activite physique. Cependant, les individus LGBTQ+ font face egalement a des barrieres uniques et disproportionnelles telles que l'homophobie, la transphobie, la discrimination et l'exclusion qui compliquent la participation et exacerbent les disparites en matiere de sante. L'objectif global de ma these etait de mieux comprendre comment les experiences anterieures et actuelles dans divers contextes d'activite physique influencent les perceptions et les attitudes a l'egard de l'activite physique ainsi que l'engagement des individus LGBTQ+ dans l'activite physique. La premiere etude examine les experiences anterieures et actuelles d'individus LGBTQ+ dans les vestiaires en analysant thematiquement 1 067 reponses a une question ouverte. Les conclusions de cette etude fournissent des renseignements essentiels sur la facon dont l'homophobie, la transphobie et la grossophobie s'entrecroisent dans les vestiaires et compliquent l'acces d'adultes LGBTQ+. La deuxieme etude interroge comment les relations interpersonnelles ont influence les experiences sportives d'athletes LGBTQ+ ainsi que leurs perceptions ulterieures de l'activite physique en analysant 741 reponses a la question ouverte « Comment decririez-vous vos relations anterieures et/ou actuelles avec vos coequipiers/coequipieres, entraineurs/entraineuses et d'autres membres du personnel sportif ? » Les reponses des participants a la question de la deuxieme etude soulignent comment les experiences sportives negatives en tant qu'adolescents ont fortement influence les perceptions actuelles des participants a l'egard du sport et de l'activite physique. En revanche, les relations de soutien avec les entraineurs/entraineuses et les coequipiers/coequipieres ont favorise les sentiments de solidarite parmi les participants et ont permis d'etablir des contextes sportifs inclusifs de la communaute LGBTQ+. Etant donne que les experiences vecues pendant l'adolescence ont joue un role decisif dans la perception actuelle chez les adultes LGBTQ+ a l'egard de l'activite physique, dans la troisieme etude j'ai procede a un examen systematique de la portee de la litterature scientifique examinant les experiences d'etudiant·es dans l'education physique. Seuls 8 documents ont ete retenus, ce qui demontre la faible disponibilite d'etudes sur l'education physique impliquant des participants LGBTQ+. Les conclusions de ma troisieme etude illustrent comment la cis-heteronormativite, qui reaffirme l'homophobie, la transphobie et les processus repandus du (me)genrage (c'est-a-dire la mauvaise interpretation du genre d'une autre personne) dans l'education physique, a d'importantes repercussions sur les experiences d'etudiant·es LGBTQ+. La quatrieme etude se base sur une serie de groupes de reflexion en ligne avec des adultes LGBTQ+ (N = 36) pour analyser les experiences et conceptions de la resilience LGBTQ+ dans divers contextes de l'activite physique. Les resultats de ma quatrieme etude laissent entendre que la resilience au niveau de l'individu et de la communaute exerce une influence considerable sur les experiences et la participation de personnes LGBTQ+ dans l'activite physique. Des etudes anterieures portaient principalement sur les barrieres et les stress propres aux experiences d'individus LGBTQ+ dans l'activite physique ; toutefois, les conclusions de ma quatrieme etude demontrent l'importance de la resilience LGBTQ+ en ce qui concerne la participation a l'activite physique. Globalement les conclusions de ma these contribuent au developpement d'une meilleure comprehension plus nuancee des experiences LGBTQ+ dans divers contextes d'activite physique.
