Physical, Sexual, and Intimate Partner Violence Among Transgender and Gender-Diverse Individuals.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) communities experience disproportionate levels of violence, yet due to limitations in measuring TGD identity, few state-representative estimates are available.

Objective

To assess gender identity differences in experiences of violence among adults.

Design, setting, and participants

Cross-sectional data from the 2023 California Violence Experiences (CalVEX) survey, weighted to provide state-representative estimates, was used to assess associations between gender identity and past-year experiences of violence among adults 18 years and older. Data were analyzed from June to December 2023.

Exposure

Gender identity (cisgender women, cisgender men, transgender women, transgender men, and nonbinary individuals).
