Narrative processing of anti-LGBTQ+ victimisation: exploring themes of redemption and meaning
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Despite increasing social acceptance, anti-LGBTQ+ victimisation remains a major risk to the well-being of LGBTQ+ people in Canada. Research has robustly shown that anti-LGBTQ+ victimisation is associated with indicators of negative mental health. Research is needed to better understand the ways that LGBTQ+ people adaptively cope with such victimisation experiences. Addressing this need, in the current study, 30 LGBTQ+ adults (19 to 66 years of age; M = 36.87; SD = 11.42) from a large Canadian city provided narrative reconstructions of victimisation experiences. These narratives were content analysed for themes of redemption and meaning making. Somewhat surprisingly, less than half of the sample narrated their experiences with themes of redemption and meaning. When it was present, redemption and meaning manifested in diverse ways across participants. Examples of redemptive themes included achieving a sense of justice, expressing generative concern for the welfare of other people, and finding a deeper level of self-acceptance. Examples of meaning making included lessons about personal safety, new positive and negative self-understandings, and wisdom into how to deal with life. The significance of these results is discussed within the context of psychotherapy with anti-LGBTQ+ victims.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
