Characteristics of Youth Presenting for Gender Care Compared to Background Populations: Examination of Social Determinants of Health.

Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth in North American clinical reports are predominantly White with relatively high socioeconomic status suggesting that access to gender-affirming care is inequitable. This study examined whether socioeconomic and social determinant of health discrepancies exist between a clinical population of TGD youth and surrounding communities. Patient postal codes were used to link the Ontario Marginalization Index (ON-MARG) to a clinic-based TGD youth cohort ( = 298).

How do psychobehavioural variables shed light on heterogeneity in COVID-19 vaccine acceptance? Evidence from United States general population surveys on a probability panel and social media.

Objectives: To (1) understand what behaviours, beliefs, demographics and structural factors predict US adults' intention to get a COVID-19 vaccination, (2) identify segments of the population ('personas') who share similar factors predicting vaccination intention, (3) create a 'typing tool' to predict which persona people belong to and (4) track changes in the distribution of personas over time and across the USA.

Design: Three surveys: two on a probability-based household panel (NORC's AmeriSpeak) and one on Facebook.

Setting: The first two surveys were conducted in January 2021 and March 2021 when the COVID-19 vaccine had just been made available in the USA.
