This study examined the moderating effect of same-sex attraction on the relationship between parent/adolescent religiosity and suicide ideation/attempts in a suicidal adolescent sample (N = 129). Linear and negative binomial regressions tested the effects of a two-way dichotomous (same-sex attraction, yes/ no) by continuous (religiosity) interaction on ideation and attempts, respectively. The interaction was not significant for ideation. However, high religiosity was associated with more attempts in youth reporting same-sex attraction but fewer attempts in those reporting opposite-sex attraction only.Pages 431-437application/pdfenIn Copyright1701 PsychologyPsychiatryArticle - Refereed2021-06-24https://doi.org/10.1111/sltb.12372484Russon, Jody [0000-0002-5629-2626]
