Oral · Clinical Science

We describe the results of a randomized controlled trial (N=270) of a webapp called imi, designed to improve sexual and gender minority adolescents’ mental health by encouraging identity affirmation and strengthening coping skills. Intent-to-treat analyses provide evidence that imi supports coping with sexual and gender minority stress.
