County-level association of sexual minority density with breast cancer incidence: results from an ecological study. g., “I am determined to beat this disease”) subscales measure adaptive coping cognitions related to a positive reflection on one's life and a sense of optimism.

This collected information from around 6000 LB women using a convenience sample rather than a random population sample.
In this study, we identified differences in coping with breast cancer between lesbian and heterosexual women.Sociodemographic characteristics analyzed included age, race, employment status, poverty status, and health insurance. In Dibble (2004) [ 23] the sample is limited to lesbians who had a heterosexual sister, as discussed previously. In the published estimates, one showed higher prevalence [ 20], four showed no difference between heterosexual and LB women [ 16, 21, 22, 29], one showed mixed results depending on definitions [ 17], one had no comparison group [ 30] and one gave no sample size [ 15]. Cancer incidence rates were stratified by sex, age, and 5-year time bands to give expected rates which were then compared to observed rates. This allowed us to examine the effect of breast cancer timing on the associations between life course factors and coping.
