Before testing its psychometric properties, the LGBT-DOCSS was translated and adapted from the original English version into Polish. Subsequently, we tested the instrument's psychometric properties on a sample of 415 participants. In addition, internal consistency of the questionnaire was checked with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Cronbach's alpha together with discriminative power index were uses as internal consistency measures. There were more female than male participants (58%). More than 57% of the participants were heterosexual and the average age of the respondents was approximately 30 years. The internal consistency of the Polish version and its domains was strong with an overall Cronbach's alpha of 0.789. The alpha ranges for each subscale domains were between 0.780-0.824. The McDonald's omega coefficient was 0.86. The Polish version of the LGBT-DOCSS-PL has good properties of factorial validity.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"45-59"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139547474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examined the relationship between self-objectification and self-sexualizing appearance behaviors and the moderating effect of butch/androgynous/femme sexual self-label identification in Chinese bisexual and lesbian females. We recruited 637 bisexual and lesbian females to complete an online questionnaire that asked about demographic information and feminine and masculine self-sexualizing appearance behaviors and measured the Objectified Body Consciousness Scale. Feminine self-sexualizing appearance behaviors include wearing high heels, short skirts, low-cut outfits, skinny clothes and makeup. Masculine self-sexualizing appearance behaviors include wearing short hair and binding breasts. Femme-identified females scored higher on body surveillance than did butch- and androgynous-identified females. Butch-identified females reported having more masculine self-sexualizing behaviors, whereas femme-identified females reported having more feminine self-sexualizing appearance behaviors. Sexual self-label identification moderated the relationship between self-objectification and feminine self-sexualizing behaviors. Body surveillance was significantly associated with feminine self-sexualizing behaviors in femme- and androgynous-identified females but not in butch-identified females. Body shame was negatively associated with feminine self-sexualizing appearance behaviors in androgynous-identified females. The current findings highlight the role of sexual self-label identification in self-objectification among Chinese bisexual and lesbian females. The findings imply the heterogeneousness of self-objectification among Chinese bisexual and lesbian females.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"145-166"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139693263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These laws allow individuals to refuse services based on religious or moral beliefs. LGBTQIA+ advocates have raised concerns regarding exemptions to deny care to LGBTQIA+ individuals with heightened health needs. Research suggests that LGBTQIA+ individuals have higher anticipated needs for nursing home care; however, a gap in empirical research exists on how nursing home staff understand religious exemptions in the context of their caregiving. This study, thus, employs a qualitative case approach to examine this question: How do nursing home staff make sense of staff refusal to provide care to LGBTQIA+ residents because of religious or moral beliefs? Data includes semi-structured interviews of nursing home staff (n = 90) and was analyzed with thematic analysis. While dominant narratives present religious exemptions as a conflict between religious liberty and equality, staff employed a variety of cultural frames to reconcile cultural discord and achieve social coherence about whether to accommodate a colleague who refused care to an LGBTQIA+ resident. Cultural frames included individual rights, individual religious belief, fairness, job obligations, resident safety and comfort, and legal compliance.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-26"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142838997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research has explored the social factors that impact the wellbeing of LGBT individuals in western countries, while the impact of politics on the wellbeing of marginalized groups is still largely unexplored. Through thematic analysis, this study found that family support and peer networks are the two most important social structures that determine the quality of life of LGBT emerging adults in India, whereas the impact of politics on wellbeing depends on the level of political awareness of the participants and their socio-political privilege in terms of caste, class and gender. However, there were significant differences in the relevant factors that affect the quality of life for cisgender and transgender participants which leaves room for further research.

Inclusion challenges exist, according to interviews with eight LGBTQ+ students and an examination of Thai educational policies. Following the 2015 Gender Equality Act, UK policies have not resulted to universal change: LGBTQ+ students say curricula rarely address LGBTQ+ issues, discriminatory school practices like bathroom bans and name restrictions persist across states and territories, and peer and teacher support for sexual orientation and gender identity is inconsistent, which prevents students from being themselves while studying. Peer relationships vary by culture and social background, leaving a trace of acceptance or bullying. However, the school's LGBTQ+ community center and events such as Miss LGBTQ+, a queer-only evening gown pageant or foster pride. This study uses intersectionality and social justice theories to show that Thai education needs more inclusive LGBTQ+ curricula in university teacher training and discursive analysis of school policies (uniforms/restrooms) to better support LGBTQ+ students.

Hierarchical multivariable regression models were conducted to examine associations of optimism-pessimism and the moderating effect of chronicity-based discrimination on loneliness. SMM reporting higher pessimism and lower optimism reported greater levels of loneliness and exposure to discrimination, and chronicity-based discrimination was negatively associated with optimism, and positively associated with pessimism. Associations of optimism, but not pessimism, with loneliness were moderated by discrimination.

These findings illuminate that both online and in-person peer support play an important role in the lives of young LGBTQA+ Australians with our findings indicating that rather than an either-or approach, online and in-person peer support predominately follows a sequential pattern in the development of their identity and sense of acceptance and belonging. Whilst the anonymity of online spaces acts as a catalyst for exploration of gender identity and sexuality, once assured of their identity, in person peer support allows LGBTQA+ young people to feel more connected to others in real life. These findings provide a strong rationale for future research into the differences between subgroups of the LGBTQA+ community and for policies and interventions to increase the safety of online and accessible offline community spaces.","PeriodicalId":48221,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Homosexuality","volume":" ","pages":"1-23"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142802832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
