Abstract
This study details the development and validation of the Gay Community Involvement Index (GCII) across two studies. Exploratory factor analysis suggested four subscales: Community Activities, Nightlife, Media, and Political Activism. We report evidence for internal consistency within subscales scores, as well as both convergent and discriminant validity for subscale scores.
