Although research in recent years has revealed widespread discrimination against transgender people, few studies have addressed the attitudes of those who discriminate. In fact, although studies report that bullying is very common in adolescence, little is known about the attitudes of adolescents towards transgender people. This study aimed to determine the roles of social reputation, family socialisation, the big five personality traits and aggressiveness in transphobia and gender bashing among adolescents. The sample consisted of 479 students (50.1% boys) aged 14–19 (M = 15.04; SD = 1.06). The results revealed that transphobia and gender bashing were significantly related to the study variables. Specifically, the results showed that transphobia is largely predicted by variables of the type related to affect and personality, while gender bashing is largely related to variables of a social and reputational nature. Similarly, differences were found between genders, with boys having significantly higher scores than girls for transphobia and gender bashing, as well as specificity of predictors. The implications of these findings are discussed.

尽管近年来的研究揭示了对跨性别者的普遍歧视，但很少有研究涉及歧视者的态度。事实上，尽管研究报告说欺凌在青春期很常见，但人们对青少年对跨性别者的态度知之甚少。本研究旨在确定社会声誉、家庭社会化、大五人格特质和攻击性在青少年跨性别恐惧症和性别抨击中的作用。样本包括 479 名 14-19 岁的学生（50.1% 男孩）（M = 15.04；SD = 1.06）。结果表明，跨性别恐惧症和性别抨击与研究变量显着相关。具体来说，结果表明，跨性别恐惧症在很大程度上是由与情感和人格相关的变量预测的，而性别抨击在很大程度上与社会和声誉性质的变量有关。同样，性别之间也存在差异，男孩的跨性别恐惧症和性别抨击得分明显高于女孩，以及预测指标的特异性。讨论了这些发现的含义。
