ABSTRACT In the United States, the transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) population has increased twofold since 2011. Although counseling professionals are called to provide competent services to TGNC clients, no empirical studies exist that examine one of the first points of contact: Intake paperwork. The authors conducted a content analysis (N = 128) of intake paperwork and assessed how and if clinicians asked for gender, sex, and sexual/affectual orientation, and whether they conflated these constructs. Findings indicate adjustments need to be made for intakes to be more inclusive of these constructs. The authors offer clinical implications and avenues for future research.

Intake Paperwork 的内容分析：临床医生如何询问性别、性别和性/情感取向的探索

摘要在美国，跨性别和性别不合格 (TGNC) 人口自 2011 年以来增加了两倍。尽管咨询专业人员被要求为 TGNC 客户提供称职的服务，但尚无实证研究来检验第一个接触点：接收文书工作. 作者对接收文件进行了内容分析 (N = 128)，并评估了临床医生如何以及是否询问性别、性别和性/情感取向，以及他们是否将这些结构混为一谈。调查结果表明，需要对摄入量进行调整，以更加包容这些结构。作者为未来的研究提供了临床意义和途径。
