"Your sexuality is yours and yours alone": a reflexive thematic analysis of sexual orientation microaggressions and their impact on LGB emerging adults' sexual health knowledge and attitudes.

Introduction: Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adults often experience cissexism, heterosexism, and other forms of discrimination, which, as a result, leaves LGB adults vulnerable to identity-related victimization such as sexual orientation microaggressions (SOMs). These derogatory, hostile, and homophobic insults can lead to adverse mental and physical health outcomes for this minoritized group. While research has established taxonomies related to SOMs and their impact on the mental health and identity development of LGB people, little research has addressed the systemic influence SOMs have on sexual health knowledge and risk-related sexual behavior.

"Everything cannot be handled virtually": Understanding intention and use of digital health technologies among rural adults and rural cancer survivors.

Purpose: This qualitative study assessed internet access and use, barriers and facilitators to participating in digital health interventions or programs, and the engagement experience in virtual versus in-person health interventions among rural adults and rural cancer survivors.

Methods: Rural adults (n = 10) and rural cancer survivors (n = 10) were recruited from previous studies to participate in an in-depth interview. The interview guide contained eight open-ended questions related to participation in technology-based programs.

Internalized Homonegativity is Indirectly Associated with Smoking Status through Somatic Anxiety.

Objective: In this study, we examined how internalized homonegativity (IH), a non-adaptive cognitive response to lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) minority stressors, related to the manifestation of somatic anxiety symptoms and reduced the likelihood of being a former smoker.

Methods: Participants (N = 77) smoked ≥ 100 cigarettes in their lifetime, some of whom successfully quit their use (N = 23 former smokers). The Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Identity Scale and the State-Trait Inventory for Cognitive and Somatic Anxiety were used to assess IH and somatic anxiety.
