Abstract

Researchers have taken considerable interest in the relationship between religious stress and substance use disorders in adulthood among sexual minorities. The purpose of this study was to examine religious stress as a predictor variable for substance use disorders among sexual minorities. A sample of 105 self-selected participants identified as sexual minorities completed the survey. Data were analyzed using correlational analysis. Contrary to previous research, our results indicated no significant correlation between religious stress and substance abuse disorder in sexual minorities. While religious stress is difficult for individuals, our data indicates it may not lead specifically to substance use disorders.
