Assessing Gender Dysphoria: Development and Validation of the Gender Preoccupation and Stability Questionnaire - 2 Edition (GPSQ-2).

The Gender Preoccupation and Stability Questionnaire (GPSQ) is a 14-item measure used to assess the effectiveness of medical, surgical, social, and psychological interventions in trans and gender diverse adults who experience gender dysphoria. One major limitation of the GPSQ is that it was not developed for use with adolescents. This study aims to validate a revised version of the GPSQ, the Gender Preoccupation and Stability Questionnaire-2 Edition (GPSQ-2) with the aim of adapting the measure to be applicable to individuals aged 13 and above.
