This study examines the intersection of sexual and gender identities among adolescents, including the prevalence of these groups and rates of emotional distress and bullying victimization. Data come from a large population-based sample; two measures of sexual orientation and gender identity create eight identity groups. Youth who report identifying both as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or queer/questioning (LGBQ) and as transgender/gender diverse (TGD) had significantly higher levels of two measures of emotional distress and four measures of bullying victimization than those who report only identifying as LGBQ non-TGD or straight TGD. Implications for research and practice are discussed.
本研究探讨了青少年的性取向与性别认同的交叉情况,包括这些群体的患病率、情绪困扰率和受欺凌受害率。数据来自一个基于大量人群的样本;两种性取向和性别认同测量方法产生了八个认同群体。报告同时认同女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋或酷儿/疑问者(LGBQ)以及跨性别/性别多样化(TGD)的青少年,在两种情绪困扰测量指标和四种受欺凌受害测量指标上的得分,显著高于仅认同LGBQ非TGD或异性恋TGD的青少年。文中还讨论了该研究对研究和实践的启示。
