abstract="Few studies have focused on within-group heterogeneity about specific factors that make lesbian, gay, or bisexual (LGB) Latinx adolescents at greater odds than other  LGB adolescents for suicide We take a unique mixture-modeling approach by creating  profiles of Latinx LGB adolescents based on suicide risk factors used in previous  investigations (bullying, alcohol, sleep, social media, and poor grades). We use  these profiles in a logistic regression to investigate suicidality A sample of 686  LGB, Latinx adolescents were used in a latent profile analysis yielding four  distinct profiles. Class 4 represented the highest risk, with high rates of  bullying, alcohol, poor grades, and use of electronics, while class 3 represented  the lowest risk with low rates of bullying and alcohol Results speak to the need to  address suicidal ideation through multiple factors, noting the strong association  that both bullying and alcohol have with suicidal ideation.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
