Research Study Announcement: Adolescent and Young Adult Gender Dysphoria Outcomes Study (AYAGDOS).
The Adolescent and Young Adult Gender Dysphoria Outcomes Study (AYAGDOS) is open for recruitment. The purpose of this research is to learn about gender dysphoria in youth (13-21 years of age) with a focus on psychological well-being, family factors, sexual orientation, health care, and the course of gender dysphoria over time. We hope to enroll pairs of family members–one gender dysphoric youth and one of their parents/guardians–to complete a series of separate online surveys over a period of five years. However, participation of both family members is not required. Gender dysphoric youth can participate without involving their parents, and parents of gender dysphoric youth can participate without involving their gender dysphoric child. An eligibility screening interview will be conducted by video conference call for the first potential participant from the same family to contact the research team. Research participation requires completing an Internet survey, is voluntary, and is not compensated.
For more information and to schedule a screening interview, please visit the study website: WWW.AYAGDOS.ORG.. The study Investigators are J. Michael Bailey (Principal Investigator); Lisa Littman (Principal Investigator); and Kenneth J. Zucker (Co-Investigator). The Northwestern University IRB Study Number is STU00215665 and the BRANY IRB Study Number is 22-076-1188. Contact the research team at AYAGDOS@gmail.com
