ICPSR Supports LGBTQI+ Data Inclusion Act

ICPSR has joined a group of 90 organizations that support the passage of the LGBTQI+ Data Inclusion Act, expected to be reintroduced during the 118th Congress in June 2023. The LGBTQI+ Data Inclusion Act would facilitate the collection of voluntary, self-disclosed demographic data on sexual orientation, gender identity, and variations in sex characteristics across federal surveys, while maintaining necessary confidentiality and privacy standards that govern federal statistics.

From ICPSR's Current Events in the Bib: "LGB health disparities indirectly linked to childhood maltreatment"

Source citation: Alley, J., Brener, S. A., Diamond, L. M. (in press 2023). Associations between childhood victimization, adult victimization, and physical health among sexually diverse adults at different stages of lifeLGBT Health.

Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (“sexually diverse”) people continue to suffer disparities in health outcomes compared to heterosexual people in the US. According to this recently published article in LGBT Health, research findings are inconsistent when it comes to identifying the underlying causes of these disparities. Authors Alley et al. noted that the stress of social stigma and discrimination is widely considered to be a cause, but few large studies look at the influence of childhood stress exposure. [More]

ICPSR Data Brunch Episode 4: Measuring Transgender Populations (Audio)

Skylar Hawthorne and David Thomas join us to discuss three specific surveys of the transgender population in the United States, how best to measure "unseen" populations, and the ideal thickness of French toast.

National Transgender Discrimination Survey, [United States], 2008-2009 (ICPSR 37888)

This study brings to light what is both patently obvious and far too often dismissed from the human rights agenda. Transgender and gender non-conforming people face injustice at every turn: in childhood homes, in school systems that promise to shelter and educate, in harsh and exclusionary workplaces, at the grocery store, the hotel front desk, in doctors' offices and emergency rooms, before judges and at the hands of landlords, police officers, health care workers, and other service providers.

2015 U.S. Transgender Survey (USTS) (ICPSR 37229)

The 2015 U.S. Transgender Survey (USTS) was conducted by the National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE) to examine the experiences of transgender adults in the United States.
