HBTQ-undervisningens plats i fritidshemmet / The place of LGBTQ education in leisure time centersSandström, Linnea January 2023 (has links)
Tidigare forskning visar att lärare uppfattar många hinder i att undervisa i HBTQ samtidigt som undervisningen i större utsträckning är begränsad till skönlitteratur. HBTQ-elever är emellertid ofta måltavlor för våld och kränkningar. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad lärare i fritidshem har för syn på de nya formuleringarna i 2022 års läroplan och hur undervisning med HBTQ-relaterat innehåll bedrivs i fritidshemmet. Studien använder sig av en kvalitativ metod och är genomförd med semistrukturerade intervjuer med fem intervjudeltagare. Resultatet visar att lärare i fritidshem är positivt inställda till de nya formuleringarna i läroplanen som rör HBTQ. Resultatet visar även att HBTQ-undervisning främst utförs i informella sammanhang eller undervisning genom olika medier som filmer och tv-serier.

News Media Framing of Gay Teen Suicide and BullyingGreene, Averie Alese 11 May 2013 (has links) (PDF)
This study examined patterns of framing in newspaper articles that mention gay teen suicide, gay bullying, and the "It Gets Better" campaign. A content analysis of randomly selected newspaper articles from 2009-2011 was performed. After presenting the frequency of content themes, emergent patterns are discussed. The most consistent theme--an evasive frame-- occurred with regard to homophobia, heterosexism, and meaningful solutions to anti-gay bullying. The day-to-day discrimination that LGBTQ people face was rarely addressed; instead, hot-button political topics such as same-sex marriage and "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" were presented as signs of social progress. This research shows the importance of media framing, particularly the news media, in stories that report on gay bullying, suicide, and homophobia.

Brief Online Interventions for LGBTQ Young Adult Mental and Behavioral Health: A Randomized Controlled Trial in a High-Stigma, Low-Resource ContextPachankis, John E., Williams, Stacey L., Behari, Kriti, Job, Sarah, McConocha, Erin M., Chaudoir, Stephenie R. 01 May 2020 (has links)
OBJECTIVE: To identify scalable interventions for improving sexual minority mental health and health-risk behavior, this study tested the efficacy of two self-guided online writing interventions-expressive writing and self-affirmation. To reach sexual minority young adults living in high-stigma, low-resource settings, we developed and tested these interventions in Appalachian Tennessee. METHOD: In consultation with sexual minority young adults (n = 10) and stakeholders (n = 10) living in Appalachian Tennessee, we adapted these two writing interventions that we then delivered to 108 local sexual minority young adults (Mage = 23.68, SD = 3.11). Participants, representing diverse sexual and gender identities and socioeconomic backgrounds, were randomly assigned to participate in a 3-session expressive writing intervention, self-affirmation intervention, or neutral control. Participants completed mental health and health-risk behavior measures at baseline, postintervention, and 3-month follow-up. RESULTS: Compared to the neutral control, expressive writing exerted 3-month improvements in depressive symptoms (d = 0.48) and general psychological distress (d = 0.36) whereas self-affirmation exerted improvement in suicidal ideation (d = 0.62) and drug abuse (d = 0.59). Participants who were exposed to greater contextual minority stressors common in rural regions (i.e., discrimination and victimization) experienced significantly greater 3-month reductions in depression from expressive writing and self-affirmation compared to control. Those who experienced greater discrimination also experienced significantly greater 3-month reductions in suicidality from self-affirmation compared to control. CONCLUSION: Brief writing interventions exert significant impact on the mental health of young adult sexual minorities, especially those exposed to minority stress. Future research can consider strategies for population-level implementation, especially in high-stigma, low-resource settings. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).

Proximal Minority Stress, Drinking Motives, and Alcohol Use in Appalachian Sexual Minority WomenJob, Sarah 01 August 2018 (has links) (PDF)
Sexual minorities face identity-specific stressors (minority stress). Minority stress often predicts worse health outcomes and behaviors, like increased substance use. The current study examined the relationship between proximal minority stress and hazardous alcohol use. Possible mediators were considered. The current study involved a secondary data analysis of data from 48 sexual minority women who completed an online survey. Measures included the Lesbian Internalized Homophobia Scale, the Connectedness to the LGBT Community Scale, the AUDIT-5, the Drinking Motives scale, and an item that measured frequency of drinking. Data, analyzed via R, included t-tests, correlations, regression, and mediational analyses. Results showed that internalized stigma significantly predicted concealment. Community connectedness was neither predicted by internalized stigma nor correlated with concealment. Concealment did not predict coping motives; coping motives significantly predicted problematic drinking. Limitations included a low sample size and low observed power. Therefore, significant results may be found with a higher sample size.

La mobilisation LGBTQ+ dans l'arène partisane canadienne (1960-2019)Lapointe, Valérie 17 May 2023 (has links)
Tout comme le mouvement féministe à la fin des années 1960, le mouvement LGBTQ+ est devenu un acteur politique important au Canada qui, depuis les années 1970, a interpellé directement les partis politiques, les élu/es et les gouvernements, les forçant ainsi à répondre et à prendre position sur une pléthore d'enjeux concernant la diversité sexuelle et la pluralité des genres. Cette thèse de doctorat s'intéresse aux mécanismes d'interactions qui régit la relation mouvement LGBTQ+ et partis politiques au Canada depuis 1960 jusqu'à 2019. Elle axe l'analyse de la relation mouvement-partis au Canada sur deux dimensions distinctes. La première dimension se consacre à la mobilisation du mouvement LGBTQ+ dans l'arène partisane (en portant une attention particulière à ses variations dans le temps). La seconde se consacre à la réponse des partis politiques face à cette mobilisation et les facteurs qui structurent ces réponses.
La thèse démontre, dans un premier temps, qu'au Canada le mouvement LGBTQ+ a adopté une stratégie multipartisane pour se mobiliser dans l'arène partisane et ce, tout au long de son histoire. La mobilisation du mouvement LGBTQ+ auprès des partis politiques a été influencé par l'ouverture de fenêtres d'opportunités politiques surtout influencé par la présence d'acteur/ices clés au sein des partis, l'instabilité électorale de certaines décennies ainsi que la position sur l'échiquier politique des partis qui se sont déplacés dans le temps et dans l'espace. La thèse avance en particulier que la présence de personnel politique out a été un facteur crucial pour mobiliser le mouvement auprès de la scène partisane ainsi que la présence de député/es out.
Dans un deuxième temps, la thèse démontre des variations importantes quant à la réponse des partis politiques face aux revendications portées par le mouvement LGBTQ+. La thèse soutient que les partis de masse et idéologiquement plus à gauche ont répondu plus tôt aux demandes du mouvement, alors que les partis de cadre ont eu tendance à générer des réponses influencées par l'opinion public ou la perception de l'électeur médian. Les partis qui ont mis sur pied des structures internes de représentation formelle et informelle LGBTQ+ ont également changer certaines positions structurantes par la suite, c'est le cas du Parti conservateur et de sa posture sur le mariage entre conjoint/es de même sexe ainsi que du Nouveau Parti Démocratique et de ses engagements électoraux par le biais des plateformes électorales.

At the Borderlands: The Experiences of Latinx Gay EngineersHector E Rodriguez-Simmonds (15348598) 29 April 2023 (has links)
<p>We all embody various intersecting visible and non-visible social identities. Those intersecting identities can place some individuals at the margins or borderlands of their other identities, causing dissonance and perhaps threatening their sense of belonging to a community. Compounding potential identity dissonances, a learner finding their fit in engineering will likely face engineering attributes such as meritocracy, heteronormativity, and a climate that prioritizes technical feats and dismisses social phenomena as outside the scope of engineering. These interactions can negatively impact their belonging, persistence, and degree</p>
<p>completion.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>However, completing an arduous engineering degree at the intersection of multiple minoritized identities is feasible. In my dissertation, I use three studies to investigate how gay Latinx engineers navigate the borderlands of their intersecting identities. Along the way, I explore how they bridge the borderlands between those and their engineering identities as I examine how they manifest and leverage their assets at this identity intersection. Initial findings suggest that learners at the borderlands of multiple minoritized identities are keenly aware of social identities and cope by leveraging some of their powerful identities (i.e., masculinity, math, and science identities) to increase their sense of belongingness, proving they are successful and valuable members of humankind.</p>

Value Driven Design for Development of Social Network Sites for LGBTQ+ users : A focus group study about local LGBTQ+ community values and design prospects for Social Network SitesDahlén, Jack January 2022 (has links)
Social network sites (SNS) were developed during the 90’s and got popularized in the mid 2010’s. SNSs are social platforms, where users can create a profile, add a network of contacts and communicate online. The LGBTQ+ community relies heavily on SNSs for information, exploration of identity, social support and community, but due to their marginalized status, they are more prone to victimization online. Whereas anonymity can protect users from bodily harm, it can’t protect against harassment and hatred, which is why it’s important to emphasize on user-centered design for marginalized communities within HCI. The objective with this study is to define design suggestions for future SNSs, based on the values of LGBTQ+ users. Two focus groups recruited from the local LGBTQ+ community in Berlin, consisting of seven participants in total, gathered in person. The focus groups discussed open ended questions around the topics of: safety, anonymity, accountability, social support and community online, seen from a queer perspective. The results of this study had correlations with prior research within HCI research and paints a picture of the differences between the “digital well- being” norm and the severity of the threats affecting the digital wellbeing of marginalized users. In conclusion, HCI and digital well-being research needs to be elaborated on, in regards to marginalized communities and their benefits and challenges of SNSs use and how that could be incorporated in a value sensitive design approach for future development.

Examining Relationships Among Levels Of Victimization, Perpetration, And Attitudinal Acceptance Of Same-sex Intimate Partner Violence In Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, And Queer College StudentsJacobson, Elizabeth 01 January 2013 (has links)
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC; 2012) reported that intimate partner violence (IPV) affects approximately 4.8 million females and 2.8 million males in their intimate relationships each year. Past research (e.g., Fanslow, Robinson, Crengle, & Perese, 2010; Foshee et al., 1996; Foshee et al., 2009) on IPV solely evaluated prevalence rates and factors within opposite-sex relationships; however, IPV within lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) individuals' relationships exists at equal, if not higher, rates compared to their heterosexual counterparts (Alexander, 2008; McKenry, Serovich, Mason, & Mosak, 2006). Subsequently, a gap in research existed on violence in LGBTQ individuals' samesex relationships and the need existed for further exploration of IPV within same-sex couples (McKenry et al., 2006; Turell, 2000). The purpose of this study was an examination of the relationships among victimization rates (Victimization in Dating Relationships [VDR] and Safe Dates-Psychological Abuse Victimization [SD-PAV]), perpetration rates (Perpetration in Dating Relationships [PDR] and Safe Dates-Psychological Abuse Perpetration [SD-PAP]), and attitudinal acceptance of IPV (Acceptance of Couple Violence [ACV]) among LGBTQ college students. The specific goals of the study were to (a) identify the IPV victimization rates and perpetration rates among LGBTQ college students, and (b) examine the attitudinal acceptance of IPV in LGBTQ college students. The statistical analyses used to examine the four research questions and seven subsequent hypotheses included (a) Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) and (b) Multiple Linear Regression (MLR). The results identified that significant mean differences (p < .01; ŋ 2 P = .16) existed between females and males in their reported levels of victimization and perpetration, suggesting a large effect size with biological sex accounting for 16% of the variance across the four victimization and perpetration variables. Specifically, females self-reported higher levels of psychological and emotional victimization compared to males (p < .01; ŋ 2 P = .05), suggesting that females in same-sex relationships reported greater psychological abuse from their female partners. In addition, results identified significant mean differences between males and females in their levels of attitudinal acceptance of IPV (p < .01; ŋ 2 P = .13), suggesting a medium effect size that biological sex accounted for 13% of the variance in attitudinal acceptance of IPV scores. In considering gender expression, results from the study identified that in females and males, those self-identifying with greater amounts of masculinity reported an increased amount of victimization and perpetration (p < .01; ŋ 2 P = .15). The results identified a large effect size in that 15% of the variance in victimization and perpetration rates were accounted for by the interaction of biological sex and gender expression. Furthermore, in females and males, those self-identifying with greater amounts of masculinity reported higher levels of attitudinal acceptance of IPV (p < .01; ŋ 2 P = .12). The results identified a medium effect size in that 12% of the variance in attitudinal acceptance of IPV was accounted for by the interaction of biological sex and gender expression. In regards to a history of childhood abuse and witnessing parental IPV, participants with a history of child abuse and a history of witnessing parental IPV did not differ in their levels of victimization, perpetration, or attitudinal acceptance of IPV from those without a history of childhood abuse and witnessing parental IPV. Finally, variables such as (a) biological sex, (b) gender expression, (c) past childhood abuse, (d) witnessing parental IPV, (e) v VDR, (f) SD-PAV, (g) PDR, and (h) SD-PAP predicted attitudinal acceptance of IPV in this LGBTQ college student sample. The results identified that linear composite of these eight predictor variables predicted 93% (R 2 = .93) of the overall variance in participants' attitudinal acceptance of IPV total score (p < .01). Overall, the results identified that females reported higher levels of psychological victimization meaning that a female LGBTQ college student potentially experiences more risk of becoming a victim in a relationship. In addition, results identified that LGBTQ college students identifying as masculine present a potentially greater risk for both victimization and perpetration in their same-sex relationships. Self-identifying masculine LGBTQ college students reported greater amounts of acceptance of same-sex IPV, which possibly explains the lack of IPV reports from these college students. Finally, the results identified that individual and family-of-origin factors do, in fact, predict LGBTQ college students' levels of attitudinal acceptance of IPV. In other words, an LGBTQ college students' biological sex, gender expression, past childhood experiences, victimization rates, and perpetration rates all relate to the prediction of their attitudes about IPV. Implications for future research included the need to further examine college students engaging either in an opposite-sex or same-sex relationship, exploring the relationships between masculinity and femininity in their reported levels of victimization, perpetration, and attitudinal acceptance of IPV. The need to replicate this study exists in order to ensure inclusiveness of individuals across all sexual orientations and gender identities in college students. In addition, several significant findings from this study further substantiate the need for continued research in the area of same-sex IPV, especially utilizing a sample of LGBTQ college students, to inform (a) clinical assessment in college counseling clinics and community agencies, (b) IPV protocol development, and (c) culturally sensitive, modified intervention based on the current findings.
