The aim of the present study was to develop and validate a short form of the Genderism and Transphobia Scale and assess adolescents' attitudes toward transpeople. A total of 800 Spanish adolescents aged between 14 and 18 years (50.70% girls, 49.30% boys) completed the Spanish version of the scale and other related questionnaires. The short form of the scale is composed of 12 items clustered into two factors (Transphobia/Genderism and Gender Bashing) that explain 54.22% of the variance. All the items showed good discriminating power, and the present scale demonstrated adequate reliability and validity. In the study, boys exhibited significantly more negative attitudes toward transpeople than girls did, both in the affective/cognitive dimension (Transphobia/Genderism) and in the behavioral dimension (Gender Bashing). Moreover, adolescents showed significantly more negative attitudes toward gender-nonconforming men than toward gender-nonconforming women. These results are discussed in terms of their relevance to the maintenance of discriminatory attitudes toward sexual diversity.
本研究的目的是开发并验证一个简化版的性别歧视与恐跨症量表，并评估青少年对跨性别者的态度。共有800名年龄在14至18岁之间的西班牙青少年（50.70%为女孩，49.30%为男孩）完成了该量表的西班牙语版本及其他相关问卷。该量表简化版由12个项目组成，分为两个因子（恐跨症/性别歧视和性别攻击），这两个因子解释了54.22%的方差。所有项目均显示出良好的区分能力，且该量表具有足够的信度和效度。在研究中，无论是在情感/认知维度（恐跨症/性别歧视）还是行为维度（性别攻击），男孩对跨性别者表现出的负面态度均显著多于女孩。此外，青少年对性别不符的男性表现出的负面态度显著多于对性别不符的女性。本文将根据这些结果与对性取向多元化的歧视态度的维持之间的相关性进行讨论。
