Gender is the core component of self-concept and a key dimension of social categorization.Gender Nonconformity refers to the psychological phenomenon that individuals show gender norms that do not correspond or are inconsistent with their birth sex. In recent years, the phenomenon of Gender Nonconformity has become increasingly prominent among adolescents. previous studies have shown that adolescents with Gender Nonconformity face challenges in social adjustment such as peer relationships, but these studies have neglected the psychological mechanism and dynamics behind the influence of Gender Nonconformity on adolescent peer evaluation. To address these limitations, the current study follows the logic of "phenomenon -explanation -prediction" and focuses on the scientific issue concerning the effects of Gender Nonconformity on adolescent peer evaluation and related dynamics. The overall aim of the study is to focus on the attributes (different degrees/types) of Gender Nonconformity, and to explore the impact of Gender Nonconformity on peer evaluation and its pathway mechanisms. On this basis, the study will also explore the dynamic evolution of Gender Nonconformity and provide possible interventions for changing negative peer evaluations of Gender Nonconformity individuals.
