Parental Sexual Orientation Socialization for Sexual Minority Youth: An Empirically-Derived Conceptual Model.
Article in Journal of marriage and the family, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: To identify and conceptualize parent-child interactions about cisgender sexual minority youths' (SMY) minoritized sexual identity, with an explicit focus on parenting communication and behaviors. Background: SMY experience stigma and consequently compromised development and health. Adjacent literature on racial/ethnic minoritized youth demonstrates the protective function of identity-based parenting practices that facilitate adaptive strategies to combat the deleterious effects of stigma. Method: Using data from cisgender SMY in the LGBTQ+ Youth in Family Study, we conducted a constructivist grounded theory analysis of 90-minute semi-structured interviews with cisgender SMY (n=18) aged 15-19 and, separately, their cisgender, heterosexual parent(s) (n=18). During analysis, the coders developed process, dyadic, and coding memos to increase rigor and interpret findings within and across individuals and family systems. Results: We identified seven overarching categories that illuminate parents' processes, interactions, and dynamics with their SMY child: Forecasting LGBTQ+ attitudes pre-disclosure, communicating around sexuality, intervening in sexual identity development, addressing heterosexism, engaging with the LGBTQ+ community, communicating values, and demonstrating personal growth/change. In most categories, parents and youth identified processes that appeared to both support and undermine SMY's positive development, sending a wide range of implicit and explicit messages regarding youths' sexual identity in the context of adolescence and U.S. culture. Conclusion: We introduce a novel framework for sexual orientation socialization processes between heterosexual, cisgender parents and SMY children to accelerate research and practice innovation for SMY development and health.
