الوصف: Using the California Quality of Life surveys, we examined suicidal ideation and attempts in 129 lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) veterans and in 315 heterosexual veterans in 2008-2009 and 2012- 2013. Although there were no significant differences in the past 12-month suicidal ideation and lifetime attempts, LGB veterans had higher odds of lifetime suicidal ideation than heterosexual veterans (adjusted odds ratio = 3.00; 95% confidence interval = 1.38, 6.53). Suicide assessment and prevention efforts in LGB veterans could benefit fromalife-course perspective regarding suicide risk. ; age; article; female; human; male; middle aged; minority group; sex difference; sexuality; socioeconomics; statistics; suicidal ideation; suicide; suicide attempt; United States; veteran, Age Factors; California; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Minority Groups; Sex Factors; Sexuality; Socioeconomic Factors; Suicidal Ideation; Suicide; Suicide, Attempted; Veterans
