Abstract
This study examined sibling closeness and sexual identity disclosure as predictors of LGBT family reaction stress. Findings showed that sibling closeness exhibited a unique protective role against LGBT family reaction stress when these individuals disclosed their sexual identity to their sibling, above and beyond closeness with parents and peers.
