The study purpose was to examine opinions about a single-item assessment of differences of sex development (DSD) to be used in research.
An online survey was conducted with a convenience sample of 111 adults who self-identified as intersex or having a DSD diagnosis. Participants read and provided feedback on the proposed single-item assessment.
The item received general endorsement to represent a population that is often not identified in research; however, participants provided suggestions for improvement.
This study represents a first step toward identifying people with DSD conditions in surveys to better understand their needs.

采用便利样本，对 111 名自认为患有间性或 DSD 的成年人进行了在线调查。参与者阅读并对拟议的单项目评估提供了反馈。
该项目得到了普遍认可，可以代表研究中通常无法识别的人群；然而，参与者提出了改进建议。
本研究是在调查中确定 DSD 人群以更好地了解其需求的第一步。
