Previous research demonstrates that sexual orientation and race-based stigma, as well as global and race-based medical mistrust, each have a negative impact on health outcomes and engagement in care (EIC) independently. This study addresses gaps in the literature by examining the impact of these psychosocial barriers and their interactions among BWSW, an understudied population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Participants (256 BWSW) were surveyed at a Black Gay Pride festival. Separate generalized linear models assessed the independent and multiplicative effects of participants' self-reported sexual orientation stigma, race-based stigma, race-based medical mistrust, and global medical mistrust related to their engagement in routine physical exams and blood pressure screenings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Prevalence rates of both stigma measures were low, but prevalence rates of global and race-based medical mistrust were high. The results show that experiencing sexual orientation stigma or having race-based medical mistrust predicts significantly lower EIC. Furthermore, the frequencies of obtaining recent physical examinations and blood pressure screenings were significantly related to three- and two-way interactions between stigma and medical mistrust, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There is an urgent need to address the intersectionality of these psychosocial barriers in an effort to increase BWSW's EIC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/lgbt.2016.0083","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,23]],"date-time":"2017-01-23T16:16:39Z","timestamp":1485188199000},"page":"4-10","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":80,"title":["Understanding the Influence of Stigma and Medical Mistrust on Engagement in Routine Healthcare Among Black Women Who Have Sex with Women"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Alaina","family":"Brenick","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Connecticut"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kelly","family":"Romano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Florida State University"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Kegler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Independent Scholar"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lisa A.","family":"Eaton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Connecticut"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/milq.12002"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","volume-title":"2014 National Healthcare Quality & Disparities Report","author":"Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality","year":"2015","unstructured":"Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality: 2014 National Healthcare Quality & Disparities Report.
