Abstract:
This study aimed to compare the level of attitudes toward homosexuality among nurses in Taiwan between 2005 and 2017 and with various demographic characteristics, as well as the roles of demographic characteristics in the changing trend of attitudes toward homosexuality between 2005 and 2017. This survey study recruited nurses from three hospitals in 2005 (Survey 2005, N = 1176) and 2017 (Survey 2017, N = 1519). Participants’ four dimensions of attitudes toward homosexuality, including condemnation, immorality, avoiding contact, and stereotypes, were assessed using the Taiwanese version of the Attitudes Toward Homosexuality Questionnaire. The results demonstrated that nurses in 2017 exhibited lower levels of avoiding contact with lesbian and gay patients and stereotypes toward homosexuality but higher levels of condemnation of gay and lesbian individuals and perceptions of gay and lesbian individuals as immoral than did nurses in 2005. Age moderated changes in some dimensions of attitudes toward homosexuality from 2005 to 2017. The need to develop training programs aimed at improving not only the quality of nursing skills but also their negative attitudes regarding homosexuality is urgent.

Abstract:
Orientasi seksual merupakan perasaan ketertarikan secara seksual dan emosional dengan orang lain. Homoseksual merupakan ketertarikan seksual yang terjadi antara sesama jenis kelamin. Hingga saat ini penyebab terjadinya orientasi seksual ini belum dapat dipastikan secara pasti. Prevalensi homoseksual mengalami peningkatan dari tahun ke tahun. Untuk itu peneliti mencoba menggali penyebab homoseksual dari perspektif pelaku homoseksual sendiri. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini berjumlah enam orang. Data yang terkumpul diolah dengan analisa tematik dan diperoleh 1 tema yaitu pengalaman masa lalumenjadipenyebabhomoseksual yang terbentuk dari 2 kategori (menjadi korban pelecehan seksual dan kurang interaksi dengan ayah). Penelitian ini merekomendasikan peran aktif kedua orang tua dalam mendidik anak sejak kecil. Kata kunci : Gay, homoseksual, peran ayah, pengalaman trauma, pelecehan seksual GAY PERCEPTIONS TO THE CAUSES OF HOMOSEXUALITY ABSTRACTSexual orientation is a sexual and emotional attraction feeling with others. Homosexuality is sexual attraction that happens to people with the same sex. Until now, this sexual orientation cause has not been confirmed yet. Homosexuality prevalence has increased from year to year. For this reason, the researchers try to explore the causes of homosexuality by the perspective of homosexuals themselves. This research is a qualitative research with a descriptive qualitative approach. There are six participants in this study. The collected data is processed with thematic analysis and one theme is obtained, past experience is a cause of homosexuality that is formed from two categories (being victims of sexual abuse and lack of interaction with father). This research recommends the active role of both parents in educating children from childhood. Keywords: Gay, homosexual, father's role, trauma experience, sexual abuse

Abstract:
This study focuses on the depiction of homosexuality in American films. It is intended to identify the images of gays depicted in American films as well as the characteristics of American gay movies. It incorporates library research by applying an analytical descriptive approach in analyzing the data. The symbol and reflective theory is used to analyze 18 American movies and 14 gay films from other countries in the early 2000s. It shows that gay films can attract audiences by describing gays as the objects for laughs; gays revealing their sexual identities; sexual scenes of gays; masculine gay men; and violence in gay life. They appear in genres like drama, comedy, romance, detective, western, and horror/mystery with two images of gay people shown in American gay movies; they are the portrait of gays as a minority and the pessimism. However, it also shows that some American gay films picture good gay life, happy gay couples, gay marriage, etc.

Abstract:
Little research has been conducted to explain the effects of gay-themed advertising in a cross-cultural context. Such research has been particularly scarce in South Korea. This study is designed to investigate the effects of cultural orientation, gender, and types of gay-themed advertising in evaluation of gay male and female lesbian print ads. The study results indicate that Korean college students (i.e., collectivists) had lower tolerance of homosexuality than did U.S. college students (i.e., individualists). The study also finds that gender-role beliefs lead males to have lower tolerance of homosexuality. However, gender did not have statistically significant impacts on advertising and brand evaluation. Lastly, the study also found that lesbian imagery print ads could lead to greater tolerance of homosexuality and more favorable evaluations of the advertising and brand than could gay male imagery print ads. The current study sheds some light on the characteristics of U.S. consumers and Korean consumers on tolerance of homosexuality and gay-themed ads. Limitations and areas for further research are discussed.

Abstract:
Attempts to understand the heterogeneous nature of the population of entrepreneurs are relatively few in number, and focus largely on gender, race, ethnicity, age and educational differences. The experiences of many other key cohorts have been ignored, including those of gay, lesbian and bisexual (GLB) individuals. This paper examines the concept of ‘gay identity’ within an entrepreneurial context, and investigates underlying patterns in the structure of the GLB entrepreneurial community. Results are reported of a cross-sectional survey targeted at a sample of GLB entrepreneurs. The study represents the first national sample of these entrepreneurs. Overall trends are identified in the motives, attitudes, perceptions and management practices of GLB entrepreneurs. Cluster analysis is then employed to identify and characterize two distinct subgroups of GLB entrepreneurs, labelled ‘identifiers’ and ‘independents’. A number of theoretical and managerial implications are drawn from the findings.

Abstract:
BackgroundOpposition to homosexuality in Europe reached a crescendo in the 19th century. What had earlier been regarded as a vice evolved as a perversion or psychological illness. Official reviews of homosexuality as both an illness and (for men) a crime led to discrimination, inhumane treatments and shame, guilt and fear for gay men and lesbians. Only recently has homosexuality been removed from all international diagnostic glossaries.AimsTo review how British psychiatry has regarded homosexuality over the past century.MethodReview of key publications on homosexuality in British psychiatry.ResultsThe literature on homosexuality reflects evolving theories on sexuality over the past century. The assumptions in psychoanalysis and the behavioural sciences that sexuality could be altered led to unscientific theory and practice.ConclusionsMental health professionals in Britain should be aware of the mistakes of the past. Only in that way can we prevent future excesses and heal the gulf between gay and lesbian patients and their psychiatrists.

Abstract:
Abstract Research in the field of older gay men remains scarce. This exploratory study examines older gay men's experiences in the construction of family integrity (versus disconnection and alienation). The family integrity approach is a developmental perspective that links ego integrity to a larger process of constructing meaning within the family system. The sample comprises ten participants (from 60 to 88 years old). A semi-structured interview was conducted and submitted to content analysis. The main findings suggest three experiences in older gay men's construction of family integrity: (i) influence of homosexuality throughout life; (ii) establishing a family of choice; (iii) creating a legacy associated with homosexuality. Family integrity in older gay men seems to evolve from disclosure at a young age to making homosexuality a legacy in old age.

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a growing realization that the contemporary social organization of homosexuality into lesbian and gay worlds is a socially and historically unique development and that the traditional academic construction of “the homosexual” has participated in this reifying process (Foucault 1978; Hocquenghem 1978; McIntosh 1981; Weeks 1981; Plummer 1981; Faderman 1981). This article seeks to contribute to this understanding by proposing a set of structural characteristics seen as preconditions to the existence of the gay world and by exploring theoretical leads, especially Marxist feminist initiatives, to make sense of these structures. The study of homosexuality has been so long dominated by psychiatry, biology, and theology that the usual tools of analysis provided by political economy (construed broadly) have not been employed to analyze it. This essay puts forward some structural linkages which set homosexuality within the context of the larger histories of gender, family, and production.

Abstract:
This work examines the structure of discourses on homosexuality, taking the nature-versus-nurture question as a case study, in order to display the incoherency that results from taking such questions for granted. This paper critically explores the alleged neutrality and objectivity of discourses on sexuality, and within this exploration, a breakdown of the categories of sexuality, sex, gender, and nature occurs. What is shown is that the breakdown of these categories renders the nature-versus-nurture Question itself quite questionable

Abstract:
Research examining college students' attitudes toward homosexuality has been consistently reported as generally negative (Herek, 1984a; Malaney, Williams, & Geller, 1997; & Mohr & Sedlacek, 2000). Furthermore, the attitudes of heterosexual college males have reflected higher levels of negativity when compared to their female counterparts (D'Augelli & Rose, 1991; Kite, 1984; & Smith & Gordon, 1998). The ensuing literature review examines research studies conducted at large, small, public, and private institutions. The purpose of this study is to investigate attitudes toward gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people from the point of view of heterosexual males who attend private institutions. The literature in regards to private institutional campus setting is very limited. Data was collected through the dissemination of the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender (GLBT) Attitude Assessment at four private colleges. The administration of the instrument was conducted through a designated coordinator and through facilitators who agreed to participate. Descriptive data, including means, standard deviation and histograms, were collected. In addition, the research study used four methods of inferential statistics: (1) within-subjects ANOVA, (2) t-tests with a Bonferroni adjusted alpha, (3) within-subjects ANOVA with one between-subjects variable, and (4) the post-hoc Ryan Procedure. All statistical tests were performed using an alpha level of .05 unless otherwise stated. The GLBT Attitude Assessment included the GLBT Far Proximity Scale and GLBT Close Proximity Scale. While the GLBT Far Proximity Scale indicated no mean difference from males toward the subgroups, the statistical analysis conducted on the GLBT Close Proximity Scale did indicate a mean difference. In addition, males who held conservative beliefs in their political and religious orientations were significantly different than those who held liberal and moderate beliefs. Respondents' differences presented in this study were within the neutral range, however, they had negative and positive trends. For example, the respondents' attitudes were least positive toward transgender people.

Abstract:
CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO
Apesar de nas últimas duas décadas termos presenciado o surgimento de uma vasta gama de estudos relacionados à homossexualidade, pouco foi produzido sobre o tema do preconceito sexual internalizado e sua relação com a formação da identidade do sujeito. Através de conceitos oriundos da Psicologia Social, esta tese visa proceder a uma investigação exploratória deste tipo específico de preconceito e sua correlação com sintomas clínicos tais como depressão e suicídio, transtornos alimentares, abuso de álcool e drogas, comportamentos sexuais de risco, violência doméstica, e a busca por terapias de conversão da homossexualidade. Com este intuito, realizamos entrevistas em profundidade com homossexuais masculinos de classe média e moradores da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, avaliadas através da metodologia de análise do discurso. Dentre os resultados obtidos citamos as semelhanças encontradas entre os achados citados pelas bibliografias norte-americanas e européias sobre preconceito sexual internalizado e os dados colhidos entre nossos entrevistados brasileiros, principalmente no que diz respeito a depressão, dificuldades na conjugalidade homossexual (e.g. violência doméstica), experiências com preconceito e discriminação, e obstáculos similares no processo de aquisição de uma identidade gay positiva.
Despite the fact that in the last two decades we have witnessed the emergence of a series of studies on homosexuality, little research has been produced on the subject of internalized prejudice and its relationship to gay identity. Using Social Psychological concepts, this thesis is an exploratory investigation of this specific type of prejudice and its correlation with clinical symptoms such as depression and suicide, eating disorders, alcohol and drug abuse, high risk sexual behavior, domestic violence, and the search for conversion therapies. With this objective, we made in-depth interviews with male homosexuals that live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, with the material obtained being later examined using a discourse analysis methodology. Among our results we mention that North-American, European and Brazilian male homosexuals seem to experience internalized prejudice in a similar way, particularly with respect to depression, difficulties in gay male couples (domestic violence), experiences with prejudice and discrimination, and comparable obstacles in the process of acquiring a positive gay identity.
