Previous studies have shown that there are still levels of discrimination against LGBTQ+ individuals in the work and school settings. Levels of sexual identity discrimination and concealment in 216 working college students were assessed. Results found a significant positive correlation between perceived LGBTQ+ discrimination and sexual identity concealment in both environments, suggesting LGBTQ+ individuals are more likely to conceal their sexual identity when they are interacting within environments they perceive as discriminatory.
