Study of gender and sexuality development

Massey.ac.nz

Massey psychology doctoral researcher Jaimie Veale is seeking people of all sexual orientations to respond to an online questionnaire for a major study on how gender and sexuality variance develops.

The survey includes questions on personality, family history of sexuality and gender-variance, early childhood experiences and ways of coping with stress.

““It’s interesting to know what makes you who you are,” Ms Veale says. “This research is testing a model I have developed to explain the occurrence of gender-variance such as transexualism, transvestism and other forms of gender diversity.”
