Description
Juan Nebot-Garcia and co-authors adapt a minority stress questionnaire for Spanish adults in this 2026 study. Sexual and gender minorities face daily stress from stigma and bias. That stress harms mental health in measured ways. A valid tool is needed to assess it in Spanish. The original measure was built in English for any orientation or identity. More than three thousand Spanish participants completed the adapted version.
Most were cisgender, and the largest groups were bisexual people and gay or lesbian people. Statistical checks explored how the items group into factors. A sound Spanish tool lets clinics and researchers measure the burden. It also enables fair comparison with English-speaking samples. The study is a psychometric validation. Its sample is large for this kind of work.
