The Impact of Minority Stress on Mental Health and Substance Use Among Sexual Minority Women (2011, background): “…do not know how many people viewed our solicitation (and thus we cannot calculate a response rate), what motivated participants to respond, or how the participants differ in any systematic way from those who did not see our recruitment materials or chose not to participate (Meyer & Wilson, 2009).”
Counseling Psychology Research on Sexual (Orientation) Minority Issues: Conceptual and Methodological Challenges and Opportunities (2009, background): “Thorough descriptions of sampling procedures and participant characteristics are critical for sexual minority research, particularly given the harmful consequences that ill-defined or inappropriate sampling procedures have had for sexual minority research and populations (for examples, see Meyer & ”
Mental health of sexual minorities. A systematic review (2015, background): “Both sampling approaches have their strengths and weaknesses (Meyer & Wilson, 2009), and an updated metaanalytical comparison would be fruitful.”

Mental Health of Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Youth and Young Adults: Differential Effects of Age, Gender, Religiosity, and Sexual Orientation (2012, background): “A potential risk relating specifically to webbased sampling—namely that it may exclude segments of the population studied (e.g., in terms of age or ethnicity) due to different computer accessibility and use (Meyer & Wilson, 2009)—is not really applicable to this study.”
Between a Gay and a Straight Place: Bisexual Individuals’ Experiences with Monosexism (2015, background): “…in research that groups this orientation with gay/lesbian samples, or with heterosexual samples instead of looking at the experience of bisexuals as wholly distinct and unique from the larger framework of nonheterosexual sexual identities (Bostwick & Hequembourg, 2013; Meyer & Wilson, 2009).”
Innovative sampling and participant recruitment in sexuality research (2014, background): “Recruiting LGBT individuals as research participants is often fraught with difficulty, not least because publically identifying as such can result in stigma and discrimination (Meyer & Wilson, 2009).”
Sexual identity as a universal process (2011, result): “Therefore, much of this literature is difficult to interpret— especially when comparing findings across time, samples, and investigators ( Meyer & Wilson, 2009; Moradi, Mohr, Worthington, & Fassinger, 2009).”
Effects of Family and Friend Support on LGB Youths' Mental Health and Sexual Orientation Milestones. (2011, methodology): “A potential pitfall of web-based sampling, namely that it may exclude segments of the population studied (e.g., based on age or ethnicity) because of differential computer accessibility and use (Meyer & Wilson, 2009), is not really applicable to this study.”
Multiple Oppressions and the Mental Health of Sexual Minority Latina/o Individuals (2015, background): “…however, that demographic characteristics of sexual minority people are not gathered in population benchmarks such as the U.S. Census, making it difficult to determine the extent to which any sample of sexual minority people is representative of the population as a whole (Meyer & Wilson, 2009).”
