Study Notes
Non-Discrimination and SOGIE Awareness
- The Psychological Association of the Philippines (PAP) emphasized the importance of non-discrimination regarding sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression (SOGIE) in October 2011.
- PAP recognized ongoing stigma, prejudice, and discrimination faced by the LGBT community in the Philippines.
LGBT Community Challenges
- The LGBT community experiences victimization, media stereotypes, denial of access to commercial businesses, limited job opportunities, and reduced political participation.
- Stigma leads to internalized negative perceptions of one's sexual identity, affecting mental health.
Sexual Identity
- Sexual identity encompasses how individuals perceive themselves, including categories such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or confusion about identity.
- Research indicates sexual minority youth face significant stigma and prejudice.
Internalized Stigma
- Internalized stigma refers to negative self-perceptions among individuals due to societal stigma.
- This internalization can lead to mental health issues and contribute to suicidal behavior.
Suicidal Behavior Correlates
- Risk factors linked to suicidal behavior include mental disorders, lack of social support, stigma from heterosexuals, relationship breakdowns, and access to lethal means.
- Protective factors are effective mental health care and strong community and family support systems.
Research Findings
- A study found a moderate correlation between perceived stigma and self-stigma among participants—correlation coefficient r = .350, p < .01.
- The study revealed the association between perceived stigma and psychological distress such as hopelessness (r = .438) and suicidal ideation (r = .370).
Stigma Measurement
- The study utilized multi-item measures like the Hopelessness Scale (HSS) and Self-Stigma Scale (SSS) to understand their relationship with suicidal behavior.
- High reliability scores were reported for both long and short versions of the Stigma and Suicidal Behavior scales.
Gender Comparison in Findings
- In the research sample, there were more gay individuals (124) than lesbians (61), highlighting a potential bias in community representation.
- Participants expressed that societal tolerance for homosexuals is conditional, dependent on conformity to stereotypes.
Importance of Mental Health
- High incidences of psychiatric disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety) were observed among sexual minorities, emphasizing the need for targeted mental health resources and awareness.
- Internalized stigma can lead to self-hatred and self-disgust, exacerbating suicidal tendencies among individuals in marginalized communities.
