Abstract
Using well-accepted instruments–the Gender Minority Stress and Resilience Measure, PERMA Profiler, and Humor Styles Questionnaire–and a self-developed measure of demographic and qualitative information, our mixed methods research aims to understand the role of humor within the TGD community, and its moderating impacts on their perceived minority stress and well-being.
