Sexual and gender minority identity, peer victimization, and suicidality in adolescents: A mediation study using the ABCD Study
SGM youth are disproportionately affected by both interpersonal and online victimization, which are subsequently associated with their elevated suicide risks. Our findings underscore the urgent need for targeted interventions to foster safer school and online environments to reduce suicide among SGM youth.
