Resumen:
Psychosocial research on lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer (LGBTIQ+)populations from Latin America is relatively recent. Initially, research focused mainly onprejudice, using qualitative techniques. Studies on LGBTIQ+ populations, using moresophisticated psychosocial theories such as those of Herek or Meyer, began in the mid-1990s.This study deals with surveys and scales based on non-probabilistic samples, LGBTIQ+populations being the first studied. In the early 2000s, queer and/or LGBTIQ+ theories wereintroduced, and research has been much more interdisciplinary. This paper describes thetheoretical frameworks used in LGBTIQ+ research in Latin America and summarizesexamines distinctions in the findings from Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Argentina and Brazil.Future research must involve cross-cultural studies, systematic or scoping reviews, andstudies on non-binary populations. Finally, the conditions for reimaging LGBTIQ+ researchin Latin America are discussed.
