Associations Between Gender Identity Control, Gender Identity Non-Verification, and Health Risks among Trans Women of Color Living with HIV.

This study applied Identity Theory (IT) metrics to data gathered from a sample of trans women of color living with HIV to determine whether measures of identity control and/or identity non-verification were associated with trans women's self-reported health risks. From February 2014 through August 2...

      ab: This study applied Identity Theory (IT) metrics to data gathered from a sample of trans women of color living with HIV to determine whether measures of identity control and/or identity non-verification were associated with trans women's self-reported health risks. From February 2014 through August 2016, 139 HIV-positive trans women were enrolled. Cross-sectional time-series regressions indicated that identity control and identity non-verification were both associated with self-reported behavioral and health outcomes. Increased gender identity control was associated with decreased drug and alcohol use (multiple Logit [L]; all p <.05) and decreased likelihood of self-reported infection with a sexually transmitted infection (STI; multiple L; all p <.05); increased perceived identity non-verification was associated with increased severity of depression symptoms (b = 0.09) as well as increased odds of engagement in exchange sex (L = 0.32), increased drug and alcohol use (multiple L p >.05), and increased likelihood of self-reported infection with viral STIs (L = 0.49; L = 0.69). These findings indicate IT may be a useful theoretical framework through which to understand and analyze behavior among trans women of color living with HIV. Identity verification dynamics in particular may be useful mechanisms to explain engagement in several potentially harmful behaviors.
