Table 4 in this study presents the results of an ANOVA analysis looking at only females. This table compares the differences in victimization scores and negative outcomes (including poor academic performance, substance abuse, and suicidality) for lesbian, bisexual, questioning, and SSB (same-sex behavior) groups among females. Table 5 presents the ANOVA analysis of the same variables for male-only groups of gay, bisexual, questioning, and same-sex behavior groups (SSB). On page 284, the authors report that all LGBQ and SSB youth are equally likely to report suicidality, substance abuse, and poor academic performance. With regard to victimization, lesbians have higher average victimization scores (M=5.40) than gay males (M=4.07). However, bisexual, questioning, and same-sex behavior females have lower victimization scores than their comparable male groups.
Regarding the data in Table 2, the authors report that victimization is greater among males (M=4.46) compared to females (M=2.39), but there are no other differences among males and females. That is, males are more likely to report victimization, but males and females are equally likely to report poor academic performance, substance abuse, and suicidality in the study.
