Abstract
We examined college athletes' attitudes towards transgender athletes. Participants (n= 294) rated the trans man athlete more positively than the trans woman athlete, F(1, 289) = 11.22, p <. 001, ηp2 = .037; positive attitudes were also associated with less gender-segregated (r = -.48) and gender-integrated transprejudice (r = -.32).
