Abstract
Compared with their heterosexual peers, lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) youths report elevated rates of suicidal ideation and attempted suicide.1-6 Same-gender orientation is independently associated with suicidal behavior,7-11 raising the possibility that risk markers for suicidal behavior may differ in their relative importance between LGB and non-LGB individuals because of interaction effects between these markers and sexual orientation.
