This research aimed to examine social wellbeing (SWB) among the lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) population within the context of sexual minority-related stressors and stress mitigating resources. Individuals with social wellbeing feel they are part of their community; they have a sense of belonging and feel valued for their contributions. This study utilized baseline data from 1,518 LGB participants in the Generations study which assessed health and wellbeing among three generations of LGB adults residing in the United States. The current research evaluated variables that measure sexual minority stressors, stress mitigating factors, and social wellbeing. The study tested several hypotheses; all of which controlled for demographic factors. The first hypothesis was that the stress mitigating resources would be positively related to social wellbeing. The second hypothesis was that the proximal minority stressors would be negatively related to social wellbeing and would make a significant contribution over and above the stress-mitigating resources in explaining the variance in SWB. The third hypothesis tested whether distal minority stressors were negatively related to SWB and would make a significant contribution over and above the stress-mitigating resources and proximal stressors in explaining the variance in SWB. A series of hierarchical regressions were performed to test the hypotheses. Findings showed that perceived social support, LGB community connectedness, and felt stigma were significant predictors of SWB. Higher levels of education, race/ethnicity, and being of older age were associated with higher levels of SWB. The results suggest that interventions fostering social support and LGB community connectedness may be more effective for increasing social wellbeing compared to primarily focusing on reducing sexual minority stressors. Further research exploring how intersections of race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, and age interact with sexual minority stressors, resources, and SWB could offer additional information about how to support positive social health among the diverse members of the LGB population.
