Multiple Oppressions and the Mental Health of Sexual Minority Latina/o Individuals (2015, background): “These response patterns are consistent with other samples of sexual minority people recruited online (e.g., Szymanski & Gupta, 2009a, 2009b; Brewster, Moradi, DeBlaere, & Velez, 2014).”
Minority Stress and Psychological Distress Among Asian American Sexual Minority Persons 1Ψ7 (2010, background): “It may also be that having multiple minority identities allows individuals to accentuate the prominence of the identity that is less stigmatized via identity management strategies in any given social context, thus providing some resilience (Szymanski & Gupta, 2009).”
Internalized Stigma Among Sexual Minority Adults: Insights From a Social Psychological Perspective (2009, background): “…between sexual self-stigma and psychological distress and well-being might be mediated by global self-esteem: Sexual self-stigma may reduce trait self-esteem, which, in turn, may produce symptoms of anxiety and depression as well as reduced positive affect (see also Szymanski & Gupta, 2009).”
If One Doesn’t Get You Another One Will (2012, background): “…(2007, pp. 36), for example, argue that “integrating multiple identities may enhance a minority individual’s overall psychological resilience” and allow him or her to “strategically emphasize identities that are socially valued in a specific context” (see also Shih, 2004; Szymanski & Gupta, 2009).”
Intersectionality in Quantitative Psychological Research (2016, background): “…with additive approaches (i.e., approaches that are not intersectional; see Else-Quest & Hyde, 2016), additive effects have been reported in studies invoking intersectionality (e.g., Sandil, Robinson, Brewster, Wong, & Geiger, 2015; Szymanski & Gupta, 2009; Szymanski & Henrichs-Beck, 2014).”
Racism and Sexism as Correlates of African American Women’s Psychological Distress (2010, background): “Separate but parallel bodies of research conducted in the United States fairly consistently indicate that perceived experiences of racist events (c.f., Carter 2007; Klonoff et al. 1999; Jackson et al. 1996; Jones et al. 2007) and internalized racism (c.f., Jones et al. 2007; Szymanski and Gupta 200”
Internalized Stigma Within Sexual and Gender Minorities: Change Strategies and Clinical Implications (2015, background): “In addition, Szymanski and Gupta (2009) examined the experiences of African American and Asian American sexual minority men and women and found that internalized racism and internalized heterosexism had an additive effect in predicting levels of psychological distress, showing the impact of…”
It's Not Burnout, It's More: Queer College Activists of Color and Mental Health (2011, unknown): “According to Szymanski and Gupta (2009), the experience of internalized heterosexism for queer individuals of color is a unique and positive predictor of psychological distress over and above internalized racism.”
A model of intersectional stress and trauma in Asian American sexual and gender minorities. (2018, background): “…colleagues found that race- and sexuality-related stress (e.g., frequency of racist events, internalized heterosexism, race-related dating, and relationship problems in the LGBTQ community) interactively predicted distress in LGBTQ Asian Americans (Szymanski & Gupta, 2009; Szymanski & Sung, 2010).”
A Framework for Incorporating Minority Stress Theory into Treatment with Sexual Minority Clients (2014, background): “In a study (Szymanski & Gupta, 2009) examining the additive effects of internalized homophobia and internalized racism among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning black adults, both variables were unique predictors of self-esteem.”
Internalized Racism: A Systematic Review of the Psychological Literature on Racism's Most Insidious Consequence (2019, background): “For example, Szymanski and Gupta (2009) looked at the intersections of internalized racism and internalized heterosexism and found that, although both were important for LGBTQ POC’s mental health, internalized heterosexism was more of a concern.”
LGBTQ+ Latino/a Young People’s Interpretations of Stigma and Mental Health: An Intersectional Minority Stress Perspective (2020, background): “This lacuna can also eclipse the fact that perceptions of stigma can worsen mental health inequalities among multiply marginalized individuals, especially if they encounter societal frameworks that stigmatize their social statuses (Szymanski and Gupta 2009).”
