Abstract: Validation study of the Stress Coping Questionnaire with trans people from Mexico. The Coping Strategies Questionnaire (CAE) is one of the most used instruments to evaluate coping strategies and styles in diverse populations; however, there is no evidence of its application in trans people, although this population is often discriminated, stigmatized, and presents social, occupational and health vulnerabilities. Therefor, the present study aimed to test factor structure of the CAE, prove internal consistency and convergent and discriminant validity of its factors, and describe the average profile of coping among trans people from Mexico. The sample consisted of 100 trans men and trans women, with ages ranging from 16 to 52 years, from different states of Mexico. The results showed that the CAE presents a factor structure different from that reported in other populations, with six first-order factors that show internal consistency and convergent and discriminant validity. The positive reappraisal factor was not defined, but was partially associated with the negative self-focusing factor. It is concluded that the CAE among trans people presents six first-order factors, with three higher-order underlying factors: negative emotional coping, social support and avoidant coping/religiosity.Resumen: El Cuestionario de Afrontamiento del Estrés (CAE) es uno de los instrumentos más usados para evaluar estrategias y estilos de afrontamiento; sin embargo, no se cuenta con evidencia sobre su aplicación en población trans, cuando ésta es objeto frecuente de discriminación, estigmatización y presenta diversas vulnerabilidades sociales, laborales y sanitarias. Así, este estudio tuvo como objetivos contrastar la estructura factorial del CAE, probar la consistencia interna y validez convergente y discriminante de sus factores, y describir el perfil promedio del afrontamiento en personas trans de México. La muestra se conformó por 100 hombres trans y mujeres trans con un rango de edad de 16 a 52 años de distintos estados de México. Los resultados mostraron que el CAE presenta una estructura factorial distinta a la reportada en otras poblaciones, con seis factores de primer orden que muestran consistencia interna y validez convergente y discriminante. El factor de reevaluación positiva no se definió, sino que parcialmente se asoció al de autofocalización negativa. Se concluye que el CAE en las personas trans presenta seis factores de primer orden a los que subyacen tres factores de orden superior: afrontamiento emocional negativo, apoyo social y afrontamiento evitativo/religiosidad.

Abstract Transgender identities in fairy tale retellings are rare, but can reveal much about gender fluidity. Helen Oyeyemi’s novel Boy, Snow, Bird conflates transgender identities with mirrored falsehoods and fairy-tale spells, pathologizing a trauma victim who turns out to also become an abuser, while Gabriel Vidrine’s novella “A Pair of Raven Wings” depicts a queer transgender man with dignity, making it clear that the trauma he suffers is at the hands of bigots rather than being an invention of a sick mind or the cause of his transition. Pairing these fairy-tale retellings illuminates the topic of gender fluidity in fairy tales by demonstrating that gender is indeed fluid, but that representations of gender fluidity due to trauma are misguided at best and harmful at worst, while those representations that assert the dignity of transgender people, even as they face trauma at the hands of bigoted people, are another stellar example of the genre’s potential to represent people who are culturally marginalized, connecting identity to power in a classic magical fairy-tale move.

Transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) individuals face significant stigma and discrimination stemming from negative societal attitudes toward their experienced gender incongruence. Much of the LGBTQ literature on TGNC health disparities and gender minority stress focuses on the influence of overt acts of violence and oppression, often leaving more subtle and ubiquitous stressors, like invisibility, unexplored. In addition, there is a limited amount of literature on the experiences of transgender men, particularly those residing in the central U.S. Research suggests that the influence of positive role models can mitigate many of the stressors experienced by TGNC people. This study aimed to explore the influence of role models on trans men's identity development. Using Photovoice Methodology situated in Community-Based Participatory Research, this project collaboratively explored the needs, assets, and concerns of trans men living in Mid-Missouri. Twelve participants (MdnAge = 31.5 years-old) and the researchers separately grouped the participant-generated photographs and personal narratives into eight themes, including Authenticity, Acceptance, Inaccessibility, Isolation, and "Trans Enough?" Results supported the idea that access to positive role models serves as a protective factor for TGNC people. Results additionally highlight that trans men possess significant characteristics of resilience. Several implications for practice, public policy, and future research are provided.
