Queer theory-driven online video awareness training significantly improved attitudes towards Bisexual individuals, as compared to a control training. Levels of emotional intelligence showed no significant association with training effectiveness, but a significant association between high emotional intelligence and inherently better attitudes towards LGBT individuals in the control condition.
