This study examined whether transmasculine, transfeminine, and nonbinary adolescents and young adults (AYA) experience different levels of gender minority stress and resilience.
Demographic and clinical information were abstracted from medical charts from AYA initiating gender-affirming care. Group comparisons between transgender and nonbinary groups were examined using one-way analyses of variance and Tukey's honestly significant difference post hoc tests.
Participants were 638 transgender and nonbinary AYA (65.5% transmasculine, 24.6% transfeminine, and 9.9% nonbinary). Transmasculine and transfeminine AYA reported more discrimination (ps = .008 and .006, respectively) compared to non-binary AYA. Transfeminine and nonbinary AYA reported more negative future expectations (ps = .006 and .016, respectively) and pride (ps ≤ .001 and .032, respectively) than transmasculine AYA.
Findings suggest that transmasculine, transfeminine, and nonbinary AYA experience different levels of gender minority stress and resilience. Future research is warranted to further examine between-group differences and differential impact on mental health outcomes.
本研究探讨了跨性别男性、跨性别女性以及非二元性别青少年和青年(AYA)是否经历不同程度的性别少数群体压力和复原力。
从开始接受性别肯定治疗的AYA的病历中提取人口统计学和临床信息。使用单因素方差分析和Tukey真实显著差异事后检验对跨性别组和非二元性别组进行组间比较。
参与者为638名跨性别和非二元性别AYA(65.5%为跨性别男性,24.6%为跨性别女性,9.9%为非二元性别)。与非二元性别AYA相比,跨性别男性和跨性别女性AYA报告的歧视更多(p值分别为0.008和0.006)。与跨性别男性AYA相比,跨性别女性和非二元性别AYA报告的未来负面期望更多(p值分别为0.006和0.016),自豪感也更多(p值分别≤0.001和0.032)。
研究结果表明,跨性别男性、跨性别女性和非二元性别AYA经历不同程度的性别少数群体压力和复原力。有必要进行进一步研究,以进一步探讨组间差异以及对心理健康结果的不同影响。
