[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS R0x89rs9. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Past studies have reported little about variability in mental disorders among lesbians, gay men, and bisexual individuals. We assessed the prevalence of psychiatric disorders in 388 lesbian, gay, and bisexual Black, Latino, and White individuals. Black lesbians, gay men, and bisexual individuals had lower prevalence of all disorders than did Latino and White individuals ; younger cohorts had fewer mood disorders than did older cohorts ; bisexual persons had more substance use disorders than did gay men and lesbians ; and Latino respondents attempted suicide more often than did White respondents.
