This study compared prevalence of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) between lesbians, gays, and bisexuals (LGBs) and heterosexuals. Unlike DSM-IV criteria, non-life-threatening events qualified toward a PTSD diagnosis. The study also examined whether stigma, internalized homophobia, and social support networks predict PTSD among LGBs. Non-life-threatening events were more likely than DSM-IV qualifying events to be associated with PTSD. There was no difference in prevalence of PTSD between LGBs and heterosexuals, or between non-White LGBs and White LGBs. However, Latino LGBs had twice the odds of White LGBs of having PTSD. Additionally, the odds of having PTSD for Latino gay and bisexual men were three times that of White gay and bisexual men. Stigma also predicted PTSD; as stigma scores increase by one unit, LGB individuals are about 1.5 times more likely to have PTSD. Implications for theory and research, identifying health disparities, and clinical practice are discussed.
