Hill, Robert Loren; Nguyen, David J.; Kilgo, Cindy Ann; Lange, Alex C.; Shea, Heather D.; Renn, Kristen A.; Woodford, Michael R.
Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, v58 n3 p267-281 2021
This qualitative study draws from 60 interviews with LGBTQ+ college students to highlight how a positive psychology framework illuminates aspects of LGBTQ+ student success. Utilizing the broaden-and-build theory and the concept of thriving, we found LGBTQ+ students experienced thriving through managing and experiencing support for multiple identities and LGBTQ+-specific connections, contributions, and curriculum. The article concludes with implications for student affairs practice and future research.
