Abstract
We examined the moderating role of sexual orientation (SO) on the relationship between cognitive flexibility (CF) and wellbeing. Higher CF predicted greater wellbeing and SO did not moderate the relationship. Results replicated CF findings in a sexual minority population, adding to our understanding of the importance of CF in wellbeing.
