Ten-Year Trends in Physical Dating Violence Victimization Among Adolescent Boys and Girls in British Columbia, Canada

Abstract Physical dating violence (PDV) victimization among adolescents is a serious global problem. Although knowledge of trends in PDV victimization can help guide programming and health policies, little research has examined whether the prevalence of PDV victimization has increased, decreased, or remained stable over time among non-U.S.-based samples of youth. In addition, few studies have […]

Enacted Stigma, Mental Health, and Protective Factors Among Transgender Youth in Canada

Abstract Purpose: We aimed to assess the Minority Stress Model which proposes that the stress of experiencing stigma leads to adverse mental health outcomes, but social supports (e.g., school and family connectedness) will reduce this negative effect. Methods: We measured stigma-related experiences, social supports, and mental health (self-injury, suicide, depression, and anxiety) among a sample […]

Disordered eating behaviors among transgender youth: Probability profiles from risk and protective factors

Abstract Purpose Research has documented high rates of disordered eating for lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth, but prevalence and patterns of disordered eating among transgender youth remain unexplored. This is despite unique challenges faced by this group, including gender‐related body image and the use of hormones. We explore the relationship between disordered eating and risk […]

Boys are not exempt: Sexual exploitation of adolescents in sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract Research on youth sexual exploitation in Africa has largely neglected the experiences of exploited boys.

Using the only publicly available population-based surveys from the National Survey of Adolescents, conducted in four sub-Saharan African countries […]
