Spirituality and Identity Formation in Same-Sex Attracted Men

 

Although several studies have examined the impact of religiosity in the lives of same-sex attracted men, very little literature exists on the cross-section of sexual identity development and the influence of spirituality among these men.  This study aims to explore the role of spirituality among same-sex attracted men with regard to self-identification ("coming out") and provide implications for community/religious-based psychosocial interventions targeting same-sex attracted men.
