Academic research in the resilience of transgender and gender diverse people


EllaRose

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

Myself and my research partner, Joseph, are currently conducting a research project that investigates the resilience processes of transgender and gender diverse adults and how these may be harnessed in suicide prevention work. 

We are seeking participants to complete our survey which asks questions about self-kindness, mental health experiences, experiences of discrimination and suicide. Questions regarding suicide will be pre-empted with a content warning and you will have the ability to leave at any time. 

 

If this interests you, please consider filling out our 15 minute survey: https://tgdresilience.questionpro.com.au/ 

 

Full details are listed below and contact details are available on the attached poster. 

 

Research details: 

  • Participation is open worldwide for those who are 18+ and are transgender, gender diverse, non-binary, or any other gender identity that is not cisgender
  • The survey takes around 15 minutes to fill out
  • Participation is completely anonymous so there is no way of identifying the individual when the survey is submitted.
  • The survey can be completed online, anywhere, at any time. 
  • The data from this survey will contribute valuable knowledge that has the potential to improve psychological mental health care for transgender and gender diverse people.

 

About us: We are two Psychology student researchers based in Australia who are currently conducting research on how resilience processes impact mental health outcomes in transgender and gender diverse people. One of us identifies as non-binary/gender fluid and the other is a cisgender ally. We are both active members of the wider LGBTIQA+ community and care about how our research may improve mental health care for trans and gender diverse people.

Done.  Odd to write lesbian but since I’ve lived with my wife for over 50 years , 40 as a male with transition that changed and I’m still attracted to females not males.

 

Hugs,

Done -- From the phrasing of some questions I could tell the survey creators were Cis gender, but I am used to that.

I know, right?  Sometimes all it takes to get me do some self-reflection is simply to ask me a question.

Done.

Some of my answers may be due to the fact that I questioned and trasitioned when older, I've been out for only a few months and I have not encountered many of the situations the suvey asks about.

I feel the answers can be better analized knowing how long the person has been aware of being transgender/gender nonconforming and how long they'be been out

Hi everyone,

 

Thanks for your feedback. Your participation is greatly appreciated.

 

There is no requirement for people to announce that they have participated, but reading your posts is great feedback nonetheless. 

 

I am really glad that so many of you are getting something out of the self-reflective process ?

 

Kind regards,

Ella

Hi Gabriel,

I appreciate your feedback regarding the time the missing contextualisation of the time when someone may have transitioned. This is a very worthwhile point and we will be looking to add a question about this in future studies. Thanks for taking the time to provide this feedback.

 

All the best,

Ella

Hi Vicky,

 

Thanks for your feedback, this is a very valid point that is all too common within psychological research.

Although I am cisgender, my research partner identifies as non-binary/gender fluid and they were involved in every stage of research design and survey development. However, as we had to use some formal measures as part of our survey that were designed by other people, we had no control over the phrasing of many of the questions unfortunately.

 

Thanks again for engaging in our study and for your feedback.

 

Kind regards,

Ella

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me

      Hey, everyone. my life is going down the tubes. at least I think. So, today. A customer called about his car, I told him that the oil change was done. The parts to fix the check engine light are ordered. He can come and get it. For the weekend if he wants. Customer says I didn't want an oil change. it was check the engine light and check for an oil leak. Checking the work order says oil change. The boss wrote the vehicle up. checking with the customer on services wanted.   Being that I wrote down the appointment in the book. and clearly states oil leak. She is complaining because she can't read my small ish writing. It seems she read oil and assumed it as an oil change. It seems like she is blaming me.  She wound up going home because she was too upset. She is stressing about an eye problem she has, she has to get eye surgery it seems she has a tear in her eye.    I feel that I am short for this job. because of the BS they are blaming me on. Plus I am still upset about the trust issue. If either one of the bosses start their Shite tomorrow. I am walking out.

      "I love you so much,"  Lois said.  They met in the driveway. "I could not live without you." "Neither could I." "What are we going to do?" "Find another counselor?" "No. I think we need to solve this ourselves." "Do you think we can?" "I don't know.  But what I know is that I don't want to go through that again.  I think we have to hope we can find a solution." "Otherwise, despair." "Yeah.   Truce?" "Okay,  truce." And they hugged.   "When we know what we want we can figure out how to get there."   That began six years of angry battles, with Odie insisted he could dress as he pleased and Lois insisting it did not please her at all.  He told her she was not going to control him and she replied that she still had rights as a wife to a husband. Neither was willing to give in, neither was willing to quit, and their heated arguments ended in hugs and more.   They went to a Crossdressers' Club, where they hoped to meet other couples with the same problems, the same conflicts, and the same answers, if anyone had any.  It took them four tries before they settled on a group that they were both willing to participate in.  This was four couples their own age, each with a cross dressing husband and a wife who was dealing with it.  They met monthly.  It was led by a 'mediator' who wanted people to express how they felt about the situation.  Odie and Lois, as newcomers, got the floor, and the meeting was finally dismissed at 1:30 in the morning - it was supposed to be over at 10 - and everyone knew how they felt about the situation.   There was silence in the car on the way home.   "We aren't the only ones dealing with this." Odie finally said.   "Who would have thought that?  You are right."   "Somebody out there has a solution." "I hope you are right."   "I hope in hope, not in despair."   "That's my Odie."

      The counseling session was heated, if you could call it a counseling session.  Sometimes Lois felt he was on Odie's side, and sometimes on hers.  When he was on her side, Odie got defensive. She found herself being defensive when it seemed they were ganging up on each other.   "This is not working," Lois said angrily, and walked out.  "Never again. I want my husband back. Dr. Smith you are complicit in this."   "What?" said Odie.   The counselor looked at him.  "You will have to learn some listening skills."   "That is it? Listening skills?  You just destroyed my marriage, and you told me I need to learn listening skills?"   Dr. Smith said calmly,"I think you both need to cool off."   Odie looked at him and walked out, saying "And you call yourself a counselor."   "Wait a minute."   "No."
