- 요약INTRODUCTION: Sexual minority (e.g., lesbian, bisexual) women experience depression and alcohol use disorder at approximately twice the rates of heterosexual women. Though stigma serves as a common explanation for these disparities, less is known about the mechanisms through which stigma may contribute to these disparities. Past research has found that the strategies that individuals use to regulate their emotions in response to experiences of stigma may influence their depression symptoms and alcohol use symptoms. Among general samples, alcohol use and suppression have been linked to increased risk for depression symptoms whereas seeking social support following a stigma-related stressor has been linked to reduced risk for depression symptoms. A limited body of past research has found constructs similar to suppression and social support to be associated with greater or fewer alcohol use symptoms, respectively, at the same level of alcohol use.The current dissertation proposes and validates a model to test whether greater levels of alcohol use, greater levels of suppression, and lower levels of social support explain 1) sexual minority women's disproportionally high rates of depression symptoms/alcohol use symptoms and 2) the relationship between stigma-related stressors and depression symptoms/alcohol use symptoms for sexual minority women. (a) A greater number of stigma-related stressors are hypothesized to be associated with higher levels of suppression, higher levels of alcohol use, and lower levels of social support, (b) which are hypothesized to be associated with a greater number of depression symptoms. (c) Higher levels of alcohol use are hypothesized to be associated with a greater number of alcohol use symptoms
