abstract="OBJECTIVE: To investigate health-related impediments to academic success for bisexual college students. Participants: Respondents to the Fall 2011 American College Health Association-National College Health Assessment II (ACHA-NCHA II) survey who self-identified as bisexual, heterosexual, gay or lesbian. <br><br>METHODS: Secondary analyses of the ACHA-NCHA II data were conducted to compare the experiences of bisexual students to both each other (bisexual men and bisexual women) and those of their non-bisexual counterparts (heterosexual and gay/lesbian students). <br><br>RESULTS: Bisexual college students are a large and distinct sexual minority group. On all measures with the exception of discrimination, bisexual college students reported the strongest threats to academic success of all sexual orientations. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Given the unique impediments for bisexual students, college health professionals should consider specifically addressing needs for bisexual students, bisexual women in particular.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
