  • Gay, lesbian, and bisexual youth risks for emotional, physical, and social problems: results from a community-based survey.

    Lock J, Steiner H. J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry. 1999; 38 (3): 297-304

    Health problems of gay, lesbian, and bisexual (GLB) youth are reported as differing from those of heterosexual youth. Increased depression, suicide, substance use, homelessness, and school dropout have been reported. Most studies of GLB youth use clinical or convenience samples. The authors conducted a community school-based health survey that included an opportunity to self-identify as GLB.
