The Parental Acceptance and Rejection of Sexual Orientation Scale was administered to 256 self-identified lesbian, gay, bisexual, or queer adults who had been out of the closet to their parents for at least 1 year. Principal component analysis revealed a clear two-component solution: parental acceptance and parental rejection. Findings showed that perceived maternal sexual orientation-specific acceptance was higher, and perceived maternal sexual orientation-specific rejection was lower, for gay/bisexual sons compared to their lesbian/bisexual daughters. Results of regression analyses suggest that both perceived sexual orientation specific acceptance and rejection predicted adult children's psychological symptoms after accounting for perceived global parental acceptance and rejection and the child's gender. The scale's utility for research and practice are noted.
对256名自我认定为女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋或酷儿的成年人进行了《父母对性取向的接受与排斥量表》测试,这些成年人向父母公开自己的性取向至少已有1年。主成分分析揭示了一个清晰的两成分解决方案:父母的接受和父母的排斥。研究结果表明,与女同性恋/双性恋女儿相比,男同性恋/双性恋儿子感受到的母亲针对性取向的接受程度更高,而感受到的母亲针对性取向的排斥程度更低。回归分析结果表明,在考虑了父母总体的接受和排斥以及孩子的性别之后,针对性取向的接受和排斥都能预测成年子女的心理症状。该量表在研究和实践中的效用也得到了说明。
