Abstract
In the above-mentioned article of Woodhead et al. (2016) there are errors in the tables. The correct versions of the tables and details of the corrections are given below. The author apologises for these errors. Due to a survey weight calculation correction to the South East London Community Health study (SELCoH) data, all weighted prevalence's, odds ratios and confidence intervals have been amended. The following describes the main relevant updated univariate data in Tables 1-3. Rather than 5.4, 6.6% identified as non-heterosexual (4.8% homosexual, 1.4% bi-sexual and 0.5% 'other'). Marital status ( p = 0.054); reporting having ever been discouraged from continuing education ( p = 0.180); that people ever acted as if they were afraid ( p = 0.168) and not applying for work or training for fear of discrimination ( p = 0.074) was no longer associated with sexual orientation. Associations with anticipated discrimination and everyday discrimination overall remained highly significant and were input into Model C in place of individual items, in analyses described in Table 4. The pattern of effect sizes in each adjustment model (Table 4) remains similar overall to those reported. For each outcome, adjustments for everyday and anticipated discrimination overall had the largest (though small to moderate) impact on effect sizes (Model C). Sexual orientation remained significantly associated with symptoms of common mental disorder (CMD) in each model, with effect sizes ranging from 2.97 (OR 1.69-5.24, p > 0.001) in Model A to 2.46 (OR 1.34-4.54, p > 0.01) in Model C. lifetime suicidal ideation remained highly significantly associated with sexual orientation in each model, with effect sizes ranging from 4.26 (OR 2.38-7.64, p > 0.001) in Model B to 3.52 (OR 2.03-6.09, p > 0.001) in Model C. similarly, past year drug use remained highly significantly associated with sexual orientation in each model, with effect sizes ranging from 3.41 (OR 1.67-6.94, p > 0.001) in Model D to 2.83 (OR 1.51-5.31, p > 0.001) in Model C. in contrast to reported data, harmful alcohol use was no longer significantly associated with sexual orientation following adjustments for childhood sexual abuse and whether ever been a victim of a serious crime (2.37, OR 1.00-5.64). Comparisons with national data (Table 5) indicated the same pattern of findings, with the exception that except SELCOH non-heterosexuals were no longer more likely than the national sample of nonheterosexuals to be harmful alcohol drinkers. (Table Presented).
