Resumo

Buscou-se caracterizar a produção científica acerca da experiência da religiosidade/espiritualidade (R/E) em lésbicas, gays e bissexuais (LGBs), via revisão integrativa de literatura nacional e internacional, no período de 2005 a 2015. A busca foi feita nas bases de dados SciELO, PePSIC, LILACS, IndexPsi, PsycINFO, PUBMED e E-journals, sendo identificados e analisados 58 artigos após a consideração dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Foram encontrados exclusivamente, estudos internacionais, predominando artigos norte-americanos, empíricos, transversais e qualitativos. As principais categorias de análise qualitativa versam sobre: integração R/E e homossexualidade; R/E como fator de risco e/ou proteção para LGBs; homonegatividade internalizada; e prática clínica. Ressalta-se a contribuição do estudo para a literatura nacional, bem como a relevância da R/E na vivência de LGBs.
