The current study takes a strengths\u2010based perspective and examines positive, developmentally relevant assets among LGBTQ+ youth of color and how these assets interact to shape well\u2010being. More specifically, the study assesses the relationship between LGBTQ+ microaffirmations and well\u2010being and the potential moderating role of LGBTQ+ identity in that relationship. In the study, 156 LGBTQ+ youth of color aged 13\u201326 (\n                    <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                    \u2009=\u200920.32\u2009years, SD\u2009=\u20092.27; 16 men\/cis men\/male, 32 women\/cis women\/female, 25 transgender men, 25 transgender women, 49 nonbinary\/gender nonconforming, 9 unsure or other gender identity) were recruited from LGBTQ+ youth\u2010serving organizations in New York State and completed surveys in the summer of 2024. Significant positive correlations were observed between LGBTQ+ microaffirmations and psychological, emotional, and social well\u2010being. Furthermore, LGBTQ+ centrality and private regard moderated the relationship between LGBTQ+ microaffirmations and well\u2010being outcomes. Associations were generally significant at average and high levels of centrality and private regard, although the association with social well\u2010being was significant only at high levels of private regard. LGBTQ+ public regard was not a significant moderator. Results shed new light on two promotive resilience assets that LGBTQ+ youth of color possess and highlight the important synergistic relationship between LGBTQ+ microaffirmations and identity, and their association with well\u2010being.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jora.70297","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,16]],"date-time":"2026-10-16T06:03:06Z","timestamp":1792130586000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The importance of\n                    <scp>LGBTQ<\/scp>\n                    + identity in the relationship between\n                    <scp>LGBTQ<\/scp>\n                    + microaffirmations and well\u2010being among\n                    <scp>LGBTQ<\/scp>\n                    + youth of color"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5508-3905","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Adam J.","family":"Hoffman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology Cornell University  Ithaca NY USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-5457-9896","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robert C.","family":"Klein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology Cornell University  Ithaca NY USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7566-5010","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robert A.","family":"Marx","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Child and Adolescent Development San Jose State University  San Jose CA USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-2395-7924","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jacey","family":"Buchorn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ali Forney Center  New York City NY USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-5857-6674","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Naz A.","family":"Seenauth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Ali Forney Center  New York City NY USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hilary F.","family":"Avallone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Q Center at ACR Health  Syracuse NY USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ssmmh.2025.100458"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2963","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4419-1695-2_199","volume-title":"Encyclopedia of adolescence","author":"Benson P.
