To assess the extent to which public health schools conduct research, offer planned curricula, and provide resources related to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender health, we mailed a self-administered questionnaire to individual department chairpersons at each school. Survey results suggested that departmental lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender research and curricular activities extending beyond HIV and AIDS were uncommon in most public health school programs. Expanding lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender health research and curricula may help health professionals improve their response to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender health disparities.
为评估公共卫生学院在开展与女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者健康相关的研究、提供规划课程以及提供相关资源方面的程度,我们向每所学校的各系主任邮寄了一份自行填写的调查问卷。调查结果表明,在大多数公共卫生学院项目中,除了艾滋病毒和艾滋病之外的关于女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者的研究及课程活动并不常见。扩大女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者健康研究及课程设置可能有助于卫生专业人员更好地应对女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者的健康差异问题。
