The analysis identified eight broad clusters of variables, comprising 78 top predictors associated with homophobic attitudes: (1) traditional moral norms and sexual conservatism, (2) religious beliefs and practices, (3) authoritarianism and social conformity, (4) xenophobia and outgroup distrust, (5) low civic engagement, (6) traditional gender, family, and work values, (7) limited digital engagement, and (8) perceived societal threat and insecurity. Sexual-moral traditionalism, gender and family conservatism, exclusivist, ethnocentric beliefs, and being a Muslim emerged as the top predictors (i.e., they showed the strongest associations with homophobia after accounting for the other variables in the model). These findings suggest that homophobia is not an isolated attitude but is embedded within a broader ideological framework characterized by rigid social norms, group-based distrust, adherence to traditional values, and a sense of perceived threat.

Consequently, having a valid and reliable instrument to assess this experience is essential. This study aimed to adapt and validate the Spanish version of the LGBTQIA+ Minority Stress Measure, originally developed in English for individuals of any sexual orientation and gender identity. A total of 3,254 participants from Spain with an average age of 31.83 years completed the questionnaire. Most participants identified as cisgender (92.4%) and either bisexual (42.7%) or gay men/lesbian (42.2%). Exploratory factor analysis suggested a five-factor structure (identity concealment, rejection anticipation, discrimination events, internalized stigma, and victimization events) with four items per factor and a second-order general factor (LGBTQIA+ Minority Stress). This model was supported by confirmatory factor analysis. The scale showed good internal consistency, adequate convergent validity with anxiety and depression symptoms, and measurement invariance across gender (men, women, nonbinary) and partial invariance across LGBTQIA+ identities (sexual orientation vs. gender identity minorities). These findings support the reliability and validity of the Spanish version of the LGBTQIA+ Minority Stress Measure for assessing minority stress in LGBTQIA+ individuals in Spain. Given the established relationship between minority stress and mental health, this questionnaire may help identify the most affected dimensions and groups, thereby guiding intervention and prevention programs and ultimately contributing to the improvement of LGBTQIA+ individuals’ quality of life.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"55 5","pages":"1989 - 2007"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10508-026-03474-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148388774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While these issues have been considered in relation to physical forms of abuse, there remains limited understanding of how these attitudes may impact victim-survivors of technology-facilitated sexual violence, particularly image-based sexual abuse—the non-consensual creation, capture, distribution, or threatened distribution of nude or sexual imagery. This article examined these dynamics drawing on a reflexive thematic analysis of focus groups run with 30 young people aged 18–24 years across the Fijian cities of Suva, Labasa, and Lautoka. The focus groups explored young people’s attitudes toward image-based sexual abuse victimization, including using the illustrative case study of former Fijian Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection, Lynda Tabuya, who had a private sexual video of her disseminated online without her consent and was subsequently dismissed from her Ministerial position. Our paper explores how cultural, religious, and moral frameworks shape perceptions of victimhood, purity, and blame among young Fijians. Our findings reveal that patriarchal and moralistic narratives contributed to a hostile environment for image-based sexual abuse victim-survivors, where they are often silenced and held responsible for their abuse, while perpetrators evade accountability. This research contributes to the growing literature on gender-based violence in Fiji and underscores the need for culturally grounded education and awareness initiatives that challenge victim-blaming and patriarchal narratives to support justice for victim-survivors, such as targeted youth workshops on consent and digital harms, run in partnership with faith-based organizations and community leaders.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"55 5","pages":"2123 - 2138"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10508-026-03467-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148372533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite broad application across clinical and empirical research, its factor structure has received limited scrutiny, and its length constrains use in longitudinal and large-scale survey contexts. The present study developed a psychometrically rigorous short form using a sequential, three-sample validation design. Three independent datasets collected via Amazon Mechanical Turk (N = 500, 389, and 418 individuals in committed relationships) served as training, testing, and replication samples. Item reduction combined exploratory structural equation modeling and bifactor methods. The resulting nine-item HISD-SF was best represented by a bifactor model with a dominant global sexual desire factor and three specific factors: sex drive, perceived desire adequacy, and partner-specific desire. Model fit was excellent in the training sample and acceptable across testing and replication samples. Overall reliability was high (<span>(omega_{cat} approx .97)</span>) with the majority of reliable variance attributable to the global factor (<span>(omega_{h - cat} approx .89 - .91)</span>); specific-factor reliabilities were low to trivial, supporting global score interpretation in these samples. Convergent validity was strong, with nomological network associations closely mirroring those of the full HISD. MIMIC-based differential item functioning analyses revealed neither practically meaningful nor systematically replicated item bias across age, relationship length, or gender.

From an evolutionary perspective, this preference may reflect selection for cues of female reproductive potential, as WHR reliably tracks both age and parity. However, virtually all previous studies present nude or minimally clothed bodies in highly standardized conditions, leaving open whether WHR-based judgments generalize to more ecologically valid settings and whether they extend beyond attractiveness to the reproductive traits WHR is a cue of. We addressed both questions by analyzing 608 painted female figures from European portraits (1650–1950), depicting fully clothed women in visually complex and minimally sexualized settings. Online Prolific observers (N = 1,525) independently estimated the body shape, attractiveness, age, and likelihood of previous childbirth from either the body or the face of the painted characters. Perceived WHR strongly predicted all three trait judgments: lower WHR was associated with higher attractiveness, younger perceived age, and lower perceived likelihood of previous childbirth. These relationships persisted after controlling for posture, body orientation, perceived weight, perceived facial age, artistic school, and date of the artwork. Our findings show that WHR-based perceptual heuristics are not artefacts of the narrow stimulus conditions used in prior research but persist in visually complex, clothed, and historically diverse depictions of women. They further suggest that fashion styles that exaggerate WHR may have functioned as strategic amplifiers of reproductively relevant cues, with implications for theories of mate choice, social signaling, fashion history, and cultural evolution.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"55 5","pages":"2027 - 2039"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10508-026-03485-3.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148359151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
