Development, feasibility, and acceptability of a smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment of minority stress and suicidal ideation among sexual and gender minority youth
Smartphone-based EMA is a feasible and acceptable method for studying real-time experiences of minority stress and suicidal ideation intensity among SGMY at high risk. Incorporating community member feedback during EMA study development can help to ensure cultural responsiveness and enhance participant compliance. This paper provides practical guidance for researchers planning to conduct EMA suicide research with SGMY.
