Description

Previous studies investigating the effect of sexual minority identification and religious affiliation on suicide yielded mixed findings. The current study examined the effect of sexual minority identification and religious affiliation on proximal indicators of suicide ideation, belongingness and burdensomeness. Participants were 58 Korean Americans (40% Female). Using a median-comparison Robust ANOVA, results indicated no significant main effects of religious affiliation or sexual minority identification on burdensomeness and no statistically significant interaction effects. Some future directions include an investigation of intersecting identities and their impact on belongingness and burdensomeness in Korean American populations.
