“…Heterosexual and sexual minority Latter-day Saint (LDS) Utahns may benefit from the health-promoting aspects of their faith (e.g., social support, health codes; Koenig, 2012) or as a function of membership in the socially dominant group in the state (e.g., feeling more confident that healthcare providers will share their views; Cranney, 2017; Lefevor, McGraw, & Skidmore, 2022; McGraw, Docherty, et al, 2021; Skidmore et al, 2022). However, LDS sexual minority Utahns may also experience identity conflict and internalized stigma that may create mental health challenges (Lefevor, Skidmore, et al, 2022; Skidmore et al, 2022) and feel less confident that they can rely on family, healthcare providers, or clergy for support (see McGraw, Chinn, & Mahoney, 2021). Additionally, non-LDS sexual minoritized individuals may experience both the stigma of being sexual minoritized individuals and being outside the dominant religious group, which may have implications for their mental health and help-seeking attitudes (McGraw, Docherty, et al, 2021).…”
