Abstract
A random-effects, correlation-based metaanalysis of 27 effect-size estimates resulted in identification of a small to moderate effect between indices of wellness and of psychosocial distress in samples of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people. This outcome was moderated by whether study measures were validated with LGBTQ populations and by type of LGBTQ population sampled. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.
