Parent/Caregiver Responses to Gender Identity Associated With HIV-Related Sexual Risk Behavior Among Young Trans Women in San Francisco

摘要

Purpose: Young trans women (YTW) carry a disproportionate burden of HIV. The developmental context of HIV risk for YTW is underexamined. The aim of this analysis was to examine whether parent/caregiver responses to gender identity were associated with engagement in HIV-related sexual risk behavior for YTW and whether these associations varied by racial/ethnic identity or age.
