This nceptual amework is the basis for the review of rearch evince, suggtns for future rearch directns, and exploratn of public policy study of mental health of lbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) populatns has been plited by the bate on the classifitn of homosexualy as a mental disorr durg the 1960s and early 1970s.

* lesbian and gay psychology theory research and clinical applications *
That bate posed a gay-affirmative perspective, which sought to classify homosexualy, agast a nservative perspective, which sought to reta the classifitn of homosexualy as a mental disorr (Bayer, 1981).
Although the bate on classifitn end 1973 wh the removal of homosexualy om the send edn of the Diagnostic and Statistil Manual of Mental Disorrs (DSM; Amerin Psychiatric Associatn, 1973), s herage has lasted. This herage has tated discsn on mental health of lbians and gay men by associatg—even equatg—claims that LGB people have higher prevalenc of mental disorrs than heterosexual people wh the historil antigay stance and the stigmatizatn of LGB persons (Bailey, 1999). The answer, therefore, pends on scientific and social nsens that evolv and is subject to the vicissus of social change (Gergen, 1985, 2001) distctn between prevalenc of mental disorrs and classifitn the DSM was apparent to Marmor (1980), who an early discsn of the bate said, The basic issue … is not whether some or many homosexuals n be found to be nrotilly disturbed.
STIGMA AND MORY STRS AS SOCIAL DETERMANTS OF HEALTH AMONG LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENR YOUTH: REARCH EVINCE AND CLIL IMPLITNS
In a society like ours where homosexuals are uniformly treated wh disparagement or ntempt—to say nothg about outright hostily— would be surprisg ed if substantial numbers of them did not suffer om an impaired self-image and some gree of unhapps wh their stigmatized stat. Evince om this rearch suggts that pared wh their heterosexual unterparts, gay men and lbians suffer om more mental health problems cludg substance e disorrs, affective disorrs, and suici (Cochran, 2001; Gilman et al., 2001; Herrell et al., 1999; Sandfort, Graaf, Bijl, & Schnabel, 2001). Acrdg to the formulatns, prejudice and discrimatn related to low socenomic stat, racism, sexism, or homophobia—much like the chang precipated by personal life events that are mon to all people—n duce chang that require adaptatn and n therefore be nceptualized as strsful (Allison, 1998; Bart, Biener, & Bach, 1987; Clark, Anrson, Clark, & Williams, 1999; Meyer, 1995; Mirowsky & Ross, 1989; Pearl, 1999b) notn that strs is related to social stctur and ndns is at once tuively appealg and nceptually difficult.
Applied to lbians, gay men, and bisexuals, a mory strs mol poss that sexual prejudice (Herek, 2000) is strsful and may lead to adverse mental health out (Brooks, 1981; Cochran, 2001; DiPlacido, 1998; Krieger & Sidney, 1997; Mays & Cochran, 2001; Meyer, 1995).

Mory inty is lked to a variety of strs procs; some LGB people, for example, may be vigilant teractns wh others (expectatns of rejectn), hi their inty for fear of harm (ncealment), or ternalize stigma (ternalized homophobia) FactorsAs early as 1954, Allport suggted that mory members rpond to prejudice wh pg and rilience. Among gay men, personal acceptance of one’s gay inty and talkg to fay members about AIDS showed the strongt posive associatns wh ncurrent measur of support and chang support satisfactn (Kertzner, 2001). Ined, reappraisal is at the re of gay-affirmative, Black, and femist psychotherapi that aim to empower the mory person (Gars & Kimmel, 1991; hooks, 1993; Sha, 1990; Smh & Siegel, 1985) distctn between personal and group-level pg may be somewhat plited bee even group-level rourc (e.
