Figure 2.

This figure describes differences in suicidal ideation (SI) based on sexual minority status plotted as a function of left temporoparietal junction (TPJ) response to social cues.
Two-way Interaction of Sexual Minority Status with Neural Reactivity to Social Cues (Rewarding + Ambiguous; plotted at ±1 SD) in Predicting SI. Significant group differences in SI observed only at low (−1 SD) TPJ activation.
Note. SI was measured with the Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire (Reynolds, 1987) and square-root transformed for analyses. Regions of significance were determined using Johnson-Neyman technique. For ease of interpretation, simple slopes were plotted at ±1 SD of TPJ activity to depict group differences in SI. Alternate Johnson-Neyman plots including the full range of TPJ activity are in the supplement (Figure S3). SMY = Sexual minority youth
