مستخلص: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other sexual and/or gender minority (LGBTQ+) people in the United States experience increased risk for mental health concerns associated with minority stress. While there are various internal and external supports LGBTQ+ people may use to cope (e.g. LGBTQ+ community resilience and religious affiliation), little is known about when and how they may buffer minority stressors (e.g. discrimination and concealment motivation). Utilizing a sample of 593 LGBTQ+ people within the United States, the present study examined two moderated moderation models to see how LGBTQ+ community resilience and religious affiliation moderated the relationship between minority stressors and depressive symptoms. Results suggest that religious affiliation may moderate the relationship between discrimination and depressive symptoms while LGBTQ+ community resilience may function differently for religiously affiliated and non-affiliated LGBTQ+ people. We provide implications for education, training, advocacy, and discuss opportunities for counseling psychologists to further explore the nuances of how such coping mechanisms influence depressive symptoms for LGBTQ+ populations in the United States.
