Students' perceptions of the rules and restrictions of gender at school: A psychometric evaluation of the Gender Climate Scale (GCS).

Research in the field of gender and sexuality diversity and, more specifically, negative attitudes toward gender and sexuality diverse individuals, has acknowledged the relationship between individuals' endorsement of sex-differentiated, normative gender roles and their attitudes toward gender and sexuality diversity. Such work has highlighted how normative expectations of gender, drawn from binarized gender roles, sit at the heart of homophobic and transphobic attitudes. Previous research in high school settings has measured gender and sexuality diverse (GSD) students' experiences of homo/transphobic harassment as an element of 'school climate' with regard to acceptance of gender and sexuality diversity.

Revalidating a Measure of Parents' Attitudes Toward Gender and Sexuality Diversity-Inclusive Curricula in an Australian National Sample.

This paper details revalidation of a higher-order (HO) version of the Parental Attitudes Toward Inclusiveness Instrument (PATII), measuring parents' attitudes toward curricular inclusivity of gender and sexuality diversity. The 48-item scale includes two HO factors: Supports and Barriers, and one first-order factor: Parental Capability. Responses from parents of government-school students ( = 2093) provided evidence for scale reliability, validity, and measurement invariance.

Parental Attitudes Towards Inclusiveness Instrument (PATII): Psychometric evaluation of a new instrument measuring parental beliefs about gender and sexuality diversity inclusions in schools.

Despite ad hoc claims that parents often are in opposition to a schooling curriculum that is inclusive of gender and sexuality diversity, there exists no research to date that has canvassed the reasons why parents may oppose or support such educational policy via a psychometrically sound instrument. The aim of the present study was to address this gap by developing and testing a new, multidimensional measure of the theorized nature of parental attitudes towards inclusiveness, the Parental Attitudes Towards Inclusiveness Instrument (PATII). The pilot sample of 998 parents who had a child attending school in any grade from Kindergarten to Year 12 were drawn from the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States (U.

Are Services Inclusive? A Review of the Experiences of Older GSD Women in Accessing Health, Social and Aged Care Services.

The review aimed to examine the views and experiences of ageing gender and sexually diverse (GSD) women-a triple minority in relation to their age, gender and sexual orientation-in accessing health, social and aged care services. Eighteen peer reviewed articles identified from seven electronic databases in health and social sciences were evaluated according to predefined criteria and a thematic review methodology drawing upon socio-ecological theory was used to analyse and interpret the findings. Four major themes were identified from the analysis: "The Dilemma of Disclosure", "Belonging/Connection", "Inclusiveness of Aged Care" and "Other Barriers to Access Care".

Gay, Bisexual, and Queer Men's Attitudes and Understandings of Intimate Partner Violence and Sexual Assault.

Gay, bisexual, and queer (GBQ) men experience significant rates of intimate partner violence (IPV) and sexual assault (SA); however, there is limited research into their attitudes and understandings of IPV and SA. This article presents the findings of a 2018 survey of 895 GBQ men currently residing in Australia, focused on their views and experiences of healthy and unhealthy relationships. The survey included quantitative and open-ended qualitative questions.
