To assess their potential role as buffers, a similar series of logistic regression models were erected using victimization and three outcomes-i.e., major depression, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempt-in the past 12 months. Psycho-social resources-the index variable as well as each resource individually-were then compared to two recent outcomes-i.e., serious mental illness in the past 4 weeks and short-term disability in the past 2 weeks-using a series of logistic regression models, controlling for all other psycho-social resources and socio-demographic confounders. Using their original scores, latent class analysis created an index variable dividing the respondents into meaningful groups. Methods: With data from the 3rd Geneva Gay Men's Health Survey carried out in 2011 using time-space sampling ( n = 428), a relatively elaborate profile of 14 psycho-social resources-including mindfulness-is presented. Psycho-social resources have been linked to numerous positive health outcomes and shown to act as buffers in the stress-distress pathway. 1Interdisciplinary Division for Adolescent Health (DISA), Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV), Lausanne, Switzerlandīackground: There is considerable evidence of health disparities among gay men characterized by higher levels of stress and distress.Jen Wang 1 *, Michael Häusermann 2 and Anne-Emmanuelle Ambresin 1
