“…It is essential for students to be aware of the disability, understand the limitations and capacities of their classmates, as well as the way to relate or interact with them [16]. Furthermore, as stated by [9,15,17,31], despite the fact that students have contact with classmates with disabilities, this interaction does not imply that they know the correct way to relate and that mere contact generates positive attitudes. Attitudes, as indicated by [19] determine the reality of the inclusion of students with disabilities and depend on the quality of interactions and relationships.…”

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the attitudes and perceptions of teachers regarding the educational inclusion of students with hearing disabilities. The study sample consisted of 128 teachers from the Canary Islands, of which 72 worked in ordinary centers and 56 in Ordinary Centers for Preferential Educational Attention for Hearing Disability (COAEPHD). A quantitative cut methodology was used, based on the use of the Questionnaire of Opinions, Attitudes and Competencies of Teachers towards Disability (CACPD). The results of this study do not allow us to affirm that the teachers showed positive attitudes towards inclusion, expressing concern about offering a correct and adequate response to the students with hearing disabilities. They considered that educational inclusion requires important improvements focused on the training and specialization of teachers in the field of inclusion.

“…Education for all must be promoted [9], and that in this sense we must reject the attitudes of exclusion, discrimination, or rejection that still exist today in most schools. In this sense, the prioritization of positive relationships and effective coexistence among all students stands out.…”

“…The situation is further exacerbated in undeveloped regions where students have fewer educational resources [19]. Last, although a study in Europe has reported reduced violence and greater respect for sexual diversity through educational intervention [20], such issues have been rarely introduced in the current sexuality education curriculum in China.…”

et al. 2021

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an internet-based and teacher-facilitated sexuality education package on the sexual knowledge and attitudes of Chinese adolescents. Methods: Six middle schools where no sexuality education had been performed with a total of 501 adolescent students (245 males and 256 females) were included in the trial. In total, 14 classes were randomly assigned to the intervention (internet-based sexuality education package) or the control group (classes were conducted as per normal). Students’ sexual knowledge and attitudes were assessed at the baseline, at the end of the intervention, and 12 months after the intervention. Generalized linear models were employed to assess the effects of the intervention. Results: Positive effects of the intervention were observed on sexual knowledge (β = 4.65, 95% CI: 4.12—5.17) and attitudes (β = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.00—1.50) at the end of the intervention. After 12 months, the effects sustained but the magnitude declined for sexual knowledge (β = 2.39, 95% CI: 1.85—2.93) and attitudes (β = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.23—0.75). There were no significant differences between male and female students. Conclusions: Although further modifications are required, the sexuality education package can increase the accessibility of comprehensive sexuality education to adolescents in rural areas in China.

“…Hostility: Homophobia or transphobia are hostile attitudes towards individuals belonging to the LGBTQIA+ collective, including hatred, the singling out of the LGBTQIA+ individual as contrary, inferior or abnormal and, in the case of psychiatric discourse, placing it in the pathological or symptomatic range [55,57].…”

“…• Domestic political action: As students must focus on presenting the proposals and issues of the LGBTQIA+ network to ordinary people working in all trades by lobbying the university in order to include the issue of sexual diversity in their agendas, in an attempt to naturalize and institutionalize the issue of homosexuality, bisexuality and transsexuality, making it a matter of social and public interest [30,37,57].…”

An Analysis of LGBTQIA+ University Students’ Perceptions about Sexual and Gender Diversity

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The main objective of this study was to explore the perceptions of LGBTQIA+ students regarding sexual and gender diversity in the university context by (1) identifying conceptions about a being LGBTQIA+ student in the higher education context, (2) researching perceptions of the stigma and discrimination against, and inclusion of LGBTQIA+ students and (3) to recognize discourses and scenarios identified by students in the university context regarding sexual diversity and gender diversity, distinguishing their experiences in the classroom as well as in the university, with their peers and with their professors. This research was based on a quantitative method, the sample consisted of 171 students from the School of Medicine of a public university in the United States in the state of Texas. The results showed that there is currently a greater knowledge of the subject of sexual and gender diversity and of the spaces and resources offered by the university on the subject compared to previous years, however, it is found that knowledge is still limited and that this knowledge may possibly be due to the faculty in which they study.
