This study aimed to provide further validity evidence for the dimensional measurement of gender identity and gender dysphoria in both adolescents and adults. Adolescents and adults with gender identity disorder (GID) were compared to clinical control (CC) adolescents and adults on the Gender Identity/Gender Dysphoria Questionnaire for Adolescents and Adults (GIDYQ-AA), a 27-item scale originally developed by Deogracias et al. (2007). In Study 1, adolescents with GID (n = 44) were compared to CC adolescents (n = 98); and in Study 2, adults with GID (n = 41) were compared to CC adults (n = 94). In both studies, clients with GID self-reported significantly more gender dysphoria than did the CCs, with excellent sensitivity and specificity rates. In both studies, degree of self-reported gender dysphoria was significantly correlated with recall of cross-gender behavior in childhood-a test of convergent validity. The research and clinical utility of the GIDYQ-AA is discussed, including directions for further research in distinct clinical populations.
本研究旨在为青少年和成年人的性别认同和性别焦虑的维度测量提供进一步的效度证据。将性别认同障碍（GID）的青少年和成年人与临床对照（CC）的青少年和成年人进行比较，使用的是由 Deogracias 等人（2007 年）最初开发的 27 项量表《青少年和成人性别认同/性别焦虑问卷》（GIDYQ-AA）。在研究 1 中，将 44 名 GID 青少年与 98 名 CC 青少年进行比较；在研究 2 中，将 41 名 GID 成年人与 94 名 CC 成年人进行比较。在这两项研究中，GID 患者自我报告的性别焦虑程度明显高于 CC 患者，具有优秀的敏感性和特异性。在这两项研究中，自我报告的性别焦虑程度与对童年时期跨性别行为的回忆显著相关——这是对聚合效度的检验。讨论了 GIDYQ-AA 的研究和临床应用，包括在不同临床人群中进一步研究的方向。
