“It made me feel seen”
Microaffirmations—subtle verbal or nonverbal actions conveying recognition and validation—are particularly meaningful for nonbinary individuals, who often navigate structural binarism and cisnormativity. This qualitative study explored everyday experiences of microaffirmations among nonbinary people in Italy, focusing on their emotional, relational, and identity-related implications. A total of 157 participants (ages 18–66) completed an online su…
Neuroqueer
This exploratory qualitative study examines how queer, trans, and nonbinary (QTNB) individuals conceptualise neurodivergence, the salience it holds, and how neurodivergent and queer experiences are mutually shaped. Data were collected in Italy through an online survey with open-ended questions. Participants were 224 QTNB neurodivergent adults (aged 18–57, M = 29.8). A coding reliability thematic analysis was conducted within an interpretivist and…

Safe Zone Trainings in School and University Contexts
The present study represents the first systematic review with a meta-analytic approach to evaluate the evidence on the implementation, content, and outcomes of Safe Zone training in educational settings. Relevant articles were systematically searched in four scientific databases (e.g., PsycInfo, Scopus, Web of Science, and ERIC) from November 2023 to May 2024. We included original articles with relevant keywords associated with “Safe Zone, Safe S…
Italian Political Agendas on LGBTQIA+ Issues
Introduction Structural stigma in public policies exacerbates minority stress for LGBTQIA+ individuals. This study explores the impact of Italy’s political climate on perceived stigma and civic engagement within the LGBTQIA+ population, following the inauguration of a conservative government that made a political agenda with explicit negative references to LGBTQIA+ individuals. Grounded in minority stress, social safety, intersectionality, and re…
Trans and Nonbinary Italian University Students
Introduction Trans and nonbinary (TNB) individuals face significant challenges in educational settings, often reporting heightened levels of discrimination, invisibility and minority stress compared to their cisgender peers. Despite being frequently included in broader LGBTQ + studies, TNB students constitute a distinct population with unique vulnerabilities, particularly in university environments where trans-affirming policies are often inconsi…
Gender-Neutral Bathrooms in Universities
Gender-neutral bathrooms improve the quality of life for transgender and nonbinary (TNB) individuals, particularly in daily contexts such as universities. However, their introduction remains debated, with resistance often rooted in binary gender norms and perceived risks. This study uses semi-structured interviews to explore university students' perspectives (n = 65; 66% identified as LGBTQIA+) on implementing gender-neutral restrooms. Results fr…
Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) and sexting motivations among Italian young adults
Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) is characterized by an intense desire to continually stay connected with others and is strictly linked to motivational factors implicated in social interactions, particularly through online communication. FoMO represents a risk factor for problematic use of communication through social media platforms. Only a few studies have explored the relationship between FoMO and sexting. This study is the first to investigate the …
Breaking the binary mold
To comprehend nonbinary identity, it is necessary to incorporate new and more inclusive social representations (SRs). Transnormativity, cisnormativity, and genderism may characterize LGBTQIA+ people so that nonbinary people risk being invalidated and excluded by the community. A sense of community, social justice, and interpersonal contact may represent protective factors. This study aimed to provide empirical data on the SRs of nonbinary gender …
The role of language in nonbinary identity construction
Languages influence how gender is perceived in a specific culture. Italian, for instance, consistently marks gender-binary distinctions, thus contributing to the underrepresentation of nonbinary gender identities. The present study explored how nonbinary Italian speakers define themselves and their gender identity and expression through language. Forty nonbinary participants were administered a semi-structured interview exploring how the semantic…

Development and validation of a measure for academic locus of control
Previous research highlighted the significant role of locus of control in predicting academic achievement and dropout, emphasizing the need for reliable measures to identify factors that foster academic success. This study aimed to develop an academic locus of control (ALoC) measure. Participants were 432 Italian university students (69 males, 363 females) pursuing bachelor’s ( N = 339) and master’s ( N = 123) degrees in Italy. The ALoC scale res…
Minority stress, resilience, and health in Italian and Taiwanese LGB+ people
The present study, using a moderated mediational model, explored levels of distal/proximal stressors, rumination, resilience, and health in a group of Italian and Taiwanese LGB+ people. The study also examined the role of internalized sexual stigma (ISS) and rumination as mediators between discrimination and health, and resilience as a moderator of the relationship between discrimination and ISS, rumination, and health, respectively. An online su…
Italian proposal for non-binary and inclusive language
Introduction: In recent years, an increasing number of non-binary \nindividuals have sought recognition in Italian society. The \nItalian language must adapt to this new social complexity, \nencouraging gender-neutral pronouns and suffixes. \nMethod: As a new Italian proposal, Vera Gheno recommended \nthe use of the “schwa” (ə) as a neutral suffix in written and \nspoken language, to promote greater inclusivity, while avoiding \nthe overextended …
Monkeypox spread among men who have sex with men
The majority of monkeypox (Mpox) cases in the 2022 outbreak have been traced back to mass gathering events in May, primarily among men who have sex with men (MSM). While some quantitative studies exist in the literature, focusing mainly on the link between Mpox knowledge, conspiracy theories, and vaccination hesitancy, there is a dearth of qualitative or mixed-method research that examines the beliefs surrounding this phenomenon, particularly inc…

Introduction: The coming out (CO) process frequently entails moments of questioning and challenge, as well as strength and resilience. The aim of the present study was to investigate the CO process and identity development of lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) people through their own life narratives.Method: Adopting a social-constructionist perspective, we administered the Life Story Interview (LSI) from the qualitative protocol of the Generations…
Non-Binary Clients’ Experiences of Psychotherapy
Non-binary people may face specific challenges in psychological settings. Psychotherapists often display a lack of preparation for non-binary gender identities, resulting in overt or subtle forms of prejudice that compromise the therapeutic alliance. The present study aimed to provide data on non-binary clients' positive and negative experiences within therapeutic relationships. Twenty-five interviews were conducted with non-binary people in the …
Feeling safe and content
Research has linked feelings of safety and contentment to lower adverse mental health outcomes (e.g., stress, anxiety, depression) in the general population. The current study aimed at exploring the relationship between safe/content positive affect and minority stress (e.g., internalized sexual stigma) in lesbian and bisexual women, considering the effect of potential mediators such as identity self-awareness and identity uncertainty. An online s…
Experiences of Life and Intersectionality of Transgender Refugees Living in Italy
Transgender refugees are at risk of experiencing increased minority stress due to experiences of trauma in their country of origin, and the intersection of multiple marginalized identities in their host country. Adopting a transfeminist and decolonial approach, the present study aimed at exploring transgender refugees' experiences of life and migration. A semi-structured interview protocol was developed, grounded in the perspectives of minority s…
Queer generativity in lesbian, gay, and bisexual older adults
Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) older adults may have had the opportunity to reflect on and process stressful life experiences, and they may be more inclined to practice queer generative behaviours aimed at strengthening sexual minority identities and supporting the sexual minority community. The present study explored the unique patterns of generativity practiced by 27 Italian LGB older adults (60 years and older) through semi‐structured interv…

Attitudes and Beliefs of Italian Educators and Teachers Regarding Children Raised by Same-Sex Parents
Attitude toward Christianity, sexual orientation, and parental religiosity in a sample of Italian adolescents
Literature suggests that several demographic variables are linked with religiosity in adolescence, such as gender, age and parental religiosity. The sample consisted of 910 young people (53% female) between 14 and 19 years of age, attending secular secondary schools in Rome, Italy. They self-identified as heterosexual adolescents (91.6%), and lesbian/gay (LG) adolescents (8.4%). High scores of positive attitudes toward God, Jesus, the Bible, pray…
