ATTENTION PARTICIPANTS: I am conducting research on the experiences of attachment and childhood sexual abuse in transgender adults as part of the requirements for a Doctor of Education degree. The purpose of my research is to understand the experiences transgender adults have with attachment and childhood sexual abuse.
Participants must be 18 years of age or older, identify as transgender, and have a personal history of childhood sexual abuse. Participants will be asked to participate in one virtual audio- and video-recorded individual interview, one virtual audio- and video-recorded follow-up focus group interview, and the review of developed themes that come from the interviews. It should take approximately five hours or less to complete the procedures listed.
Names and other identifying information will be requested as part of this study, but participant identities will not be disclosed.
If you are interested, follow the link below to participate in a screening survey.
A consent document will be emailed to you if you meet the study criteria and will need to be signed and returned prior to the individual interview and the focus group.
