Substance Use in the Transgender Population: A Meta-Analysis

New Course — We just added this course 27 days ago. Please let us know if you have any feedback about it.

About the Course:

While previous studies have focused on several aspects of the lives of transgender people, there is a gap of research regarding the risk of substance use in people who identify as transgender. This research is a meta-analytic study that focuses on the prevalence of substance use and substance use disorder in transgender and cisgender (non-transgender) people.

This course is based on the reading-based online article, Substance Use in the Transgender Population: A Meta-Analysis created by Miriam Cotaina, et al. in 2022.
