Transgender Congruence

transcon1
  • On a scale of 1-5, the average participant score for Transgender Congruence was 3.8. Transgender Congruence is the degree to which transgender individuals feel genuine, authentic, and comfortable within their external appearance/presence and accept their genuine identity rather than the socially prescribed identity. (Kozee et al. 2012).
  • The higher a participant’s transgender congruence score, the less they experienced mental distress.
