dc.description.abstractFamily relations are among the most important relations for adult children in the 21st century. Family members give and receive support from each other, which promotes the healthy development and mental health of adults. However, research shows, that adults, belonging to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and other sexual orientation and gender minority (LGBT+) community have less contact with their parents and exchange less support with them. Furthermore, research showed that LGBT+ adults experience lower well-being. As a compensation for these detached family relations, close friends may become more important to LGBT+ adults and compensate for negative effects on mental health and well-being. How important friendships to LGBT+ adults are and whether they compensate for detached family relations remains unclear. Thus, the present study aims to investigate the following questions: 1) Are the relationships with the family more important for cis-gender, heterosexual (cis-hetero) adults than for LGBT+ adults? 2) Do family relationship aspects (i.e., support, relationship quality) mediate the association between belonging to the LGBT+ community and well-being. 3) Do friendships compensate the negative effects of detached family relations on well-being and perceived stress among LGBT+ adults? The measures included scales on the importance of family, relationship quality, support exchange, as well as mental health aspects (e.g., satisfaction with life, positive and negative affectivity, and perceived stress). The data collection started in January 2023 and is still ongoing. We aim to collect the data of 250 LGBT+ adults and 250 cis-hetero adults. Using Structural Equation Modelling, we will investigate the hypothesis mentioned above. The importance of familial and non-familial relations for LGBT+ development will be addressed in the discussion.de_CH
