Prior popular frameworks to explain well\u2010being in SGD populations include minority stress and Bourdieu's forms of capital, though few have integrated these frameworks. We leverage structural equation models, integrating these constructs to examine the relative influence of forms of capital and stigma on happiness among a large sample of culturally and linguistically Chinese SGD populations. The present analysis uses a cross\u2010sectional mixed\u2010gender analytic convenience sample of SGD Chinese people (\n                    <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20098694). Structural equation models integrating multiple forms of capital (social, sexual, and economic) and stigma were fit, including models stratified by gender minority status. In the full sample, there was evidence of three significant pathways from the forms of capital on happiness.
