Other University of British Columbia, Toronto Metropolitan University Conference 2024-09-17 Other An ecological momentary assessment study of predictors for alcohol outcomes in transgender and gender diverse youth Abstract Background and Aims This study examined how gender minority stressors and resilience experienced by transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth relate to daily and momentary occurrences of alcohol use risk processes (e.g., alcohol craving, drinking motives, and distress), alcohol use, and alcohol‐related harms. The feasibility of ecological momentary assessment (EMA) was evaluated. Methods Forty TGD youth (mean 22.42 years [SD = 3.03]; range 18–29) completed a baseline interview followed by 21 days of EMA. Daily morning surveys assessed stressors and resilience, alcohol risk processes, use and harms experienced “yesterday” and twice‐daily random surveys assessed most of these experiences in the “past 30 min” or “right now.” Results Using multilevel models, at the daily (within‐person) level, gender minority stressors were significantly related to increased alcohol use (incidence rate ratio (IRR) = 1.16, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03–1.32), drinking to cope ( B = 0.16, 95% CI: 0.06–0.26), psychological distress ( B = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.03–0.35) and alcohol craving ( B = 0.05, 95% CI: 0.01–0.10), but not alcohol harms or negative affect. At the momentary (within‐person) level, gender minority stress was associated with increased drinking to cope ( B = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.51–1.01), alcohol craving ( B = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.31–0.55), and negative affect ( B = 2.17, 95% CI: 1.31–3.02). Daily resilience was also associated with increased alcohol use (IRR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.15–1.52), but not craving or negative affect. Momentary resilience was associated with reduced drinking to cope ( B = ‐0.56, 95% CI: −0.88, −0.23) and negative affect ( B = ‐0.52, 95% CI: −0.81, −0.23), but not craving. Adherence rates and participants' ratings about study acceptability were favorable. Conclusions Gender minority stressors are a risk factor for same‐day alcohol use. Resilience factors may be associated with increased alcohol use through other mechanisms (e.g., drinking for social or conformity reasons). Interventions to reduce TGD youth's alcohol use should address gender minority stressors and support TGD youth to cope with these stressors.

Beyond the Ratios: Evidence for Optimal Minimum Nurse‐Patient‐Ratios in Medical‐Surgical Settings ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the maximum number of patients per nurse before quality and safety outcomes deteriorate in medical‐surgical settings. Design A secondary analysis of cross‐sectional survey data. Methods We analysed data from 609 direct care nurses working in British Columbia's medical‐surgical areas. The relationship between nurse‐to‐patient ratios and quality and safety outcomes was analysed using both two‐level and one‐level regression models, including visualisations such as boxplots and scatterplots with LOESS curves. The analysis controlled for nurse demographics and hospital clustering effects. Results Ratios ranged from 1:1 to 1:9, with outliers above 1:9 excluded. For desirable outcomes, last shift quality of care, unit safety grade, and recommending units to friends/family and to colleagues, the means were generally positive for ratios ranging from 1:2 or 1:3 to 1:4 but negative for ratios ranging from 1:5 to 1:8 or 1:9. This pattern was reversed for adverse outcomes, undone tasks and emotional exhaustion; the means were generally negative for ratios between 1:1 and 1:3 to 1:4 but became positive for ratios between 1:5 and 1:6 to 1:8. A turning point (crossing zero) was found between the ratios of 1:4 and 1:5 for all outcomes except patient adverse events, where the turning point was between the ratio of 1:3–1:4. Conclusion The findings provide preliminary evidence in support of minimum nurse‐to‐patient ratios of 1:4 in British Columbia's medical‐surgical areas. Policy‐makers and decision‐makers should augment minimum nurse‐to‐patient ratios with other nurse‐driven tools and nurse‐management staffing methods that provide more flexibility to better meet fluctuating environmental, patient and staffing needs. No Patient or Public Involvement This study did not include patient or public involvement in its design, conduct, or reporting. Implications for the Profession and/or Patient Care Minimum ratios should be complemented by nurse‐driven tools and flexible staffing strategies to account for contextual and resource variability. Impact This secondary analysis of 2015 survey data from 609 medical‐surgical nurses in British Columbia, Canada supported a minimum nurse‐to‐patient ratio of 1:4 using a series of quality and safety outcomes for patients and nurses. This finding provides important preliminary evidence in support of the specific minimum nurse‐to‐patient ratios of 1:4 as the province prepares to implement this ratio in medical‐surgical settings. Existing staffing models using minimum nurse‐to‐patient ratios may be augmented by employing additional staffing tools and methodologies that provide more flexible resource allocation. Reporting Method This study adheres to STROBE guidelines. University of British Columbia Publication 2025-06-09 Farinaz Havaei, Claire Song, Danjie Zou, Amery D Wu, Maura MacPhee,
Saewyc, E. Inequities of swimming ability: a population study of young people (aged 12–19) in British Columbia, Canada Background Fatal and non-fatal drowning incidents and drowning deaths in British Columbia (BC), Canada have risen in recent years. A lack of swimming proficiency can be a contributing factor. The aims of this study were to establish the prevalence of swimming ability among adolescents in BC and to assess which populations might be at greater risk of being unable to swim. It was hypothesised that marginalised populations would be the least likely to be able to swim. Methods Analyses were conducted using data from 36 018 adolescents aged 12–19 who completed the cluster-stratified randomised population-level 2023 BC Adolescent Health Survey. Data were analysed using SPSS Complex Samples and included descriptive statistics, bivariate analyses and logistic regressions to assess factors that might predict a lack of swimming ability. Results Youth living in poverty; Indigenous and other racialised youth; those born outside Canada, including refugees and international students; urban-based youth; youth with specific types of child welfare experience; girls; and non-binary youth were among those who were the least likely to be able to swim. Also, youth who disliked exercise and experienced racial discrimination were at increased risk of reporting that they were unable to swim. Discussion Swimming should be made accessible through a public health approach and embedded in every school’s curriculum. Results also suggest that swimming lessons need to be inclusive of all communities; low/no barrier; and enjoyable. Conclusion Identifying populations at risk of being unable to swim can support interventions to prevent further increases in drownings. University of British Columbia Publication 2025-05-13 Sexual Health of US Transgender Boys, Nonbinary Youth, and Cisgender Girls Importance Research documenting the pregnancy experiences of transgender boys and nonbinary youth assigned female at birth (AFAB) in the US is lacking. Objective To examine AFAB youth sexual health indicators by gender. Design, Setting, Participants Self-reported data were collected cross-sectionally from 2018 through 2020. Initial analyses were conducted in 2023 and analyses were finalized in September 2024. The study took place online, across the 50 US states and Washington, DC. Eligible participants were 14 to 16 years old, read English, and had internet access. Main Outcome Sexual health (ie, self-reported pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections [STIs] lifetime prevalence, condom use, and use of other forms of birth control at last penile-vaginal or penile-anal sex). Results Based on weighted data (sample sizes are unweighted), 2109 cisgender girls, 348 transgender boys, and 458 nonbinary AFAB youth were included in analyses. There were 44 transgender boys (14%; 95% CI, 9.4-20.1; P = .24), 67 AFAB nonbinary youth (14%; 95% CI, 10.8-18.8; P = .18), and 397 cisgender girls (18%; 95% CI, 16.0-19.7) who reported ever having penile-vaginal sex. Rates for penile-anal sex were also similar by gender (4% to 6%). Lifetime pregnancy rates were higher for transgender boys (5 [9%]; 95% CI, 2.7-27.1; P = .23) than cisgender (18 [4%]; 95% CI, 2.5-7.1) girls, although not statistically significantly so. Pregnancy rates were similar for AFAB nonbinary youth (5 [5%]; 95% CI, 1.9-13.3; P = .73) compared with cisgender girls. Lifetime STI rates were universally low for all AFAB youth (0.5% to 2.0%). Mean age at first penile-vaginal sex was lower for AFAB nonbinary youth (mean age, 13.6 years; SE, 0.4; P = .003) and transgender boys (mean age, 13.9 years; SE, 0.3; P = .06) compared with cisgender girls (mean age, 14.4 years; SE, 0.1). Condom use at last penile-anal or penile-vaginal sex for transgender boys (24 [16%]; 95% CI, 9.5-27.0; P < .001) and AFAB nonbinary youth (33 [24%]; 95% CI, 16.4-34.2; P < .001) was half that of cisgender girls (245 [49%]; 95% CI, 44.1-54.2). Use of birth control other than condoms at last sex was lower for AFAB nonbinary youth (18 [28%]; 95% CI, 16.2-44.5; P = .14), but similar for transgender boys (20 [42%]; 95% CI, 23.4-62.4; P = .69) compared with cisgender girls (167 [44%]; 95% CI, 38.6-50.0). Conclusion and Relevance In this cross-sectional study of sexual health among AFAB youth with a diversity of gender identities, transgender boys were more likely, and nonbinary youth, similarly likely, as cisgender girls to be pregnant during adolescence. Even though overall rates of penile-vaginal sex were similar for transgender boys and AFAB nonbinary youth compared with cisgender girls, half as many transgender boys and AFAB nonbinary youth who had this type of sex used a condom at last sex compared with cisgender girls. As with cisgender girls, transgender boys and AFAB nonbinary youth need to be engaged in affirming and inclusive sexual health education. University of British Columbia Publication 2025-05-12 Transgender Youth’s Perspectives on the Relationships Between Pregnancy, Contraceptives, and Dysphoria To explore how trans youth with pregnancy capacity think through and understand the associations between pregnancy, contraception methods, and dysphoria. We conducted 8 asynchronous online focus groups (n = 152) between 2020 and 2021 with trans youth assigned female at birth, and thus presumed capable of pregnancy, aged 14-18, who were living in the United States. Data were analyzed using a qualitative thematic approach informed by interpretive description. Some youth participants were unequivocal in their belief that both pregnancy and contraception would give rise to gender-related distress, which affected how they framed the acceptability of pregnancy and various methods for its prevention. Others had more dynamic understandings of dysphoria, recognizing that it is not inevitable or uniformly experienced. Still others posited that dysphoria that does occur can be managed considering the individual's priority goal or desire - whether to become a gestational parent or to prevent pregnancy. Participants discussed the importance of accessing sexual and reproductive healthcare, even if doing so requires them to navigate terrains of potential dysphoria, including dysphoria that is provoked by having to access gendered spaces and services and due to the use of gendered language. Youth participants had varied, nuanced understandings of dysphoria and its potential impact on their conception, pregnancy, and contraception experiences. Many did not hold prescriptive views that dysphoria is a defining aspect of their lives as trans people. Findings suggest strategies for the delivery of gender-affirming, youth-friendly sexual and reproductive healthcare that attends to dysphoria-as-distress when it occurs.

Evaluating “Taking Pride”: A Healthy Relationship Program For 2slgbtq+ Youth in British Columbia, Canada University of British Columbia Publication 2025-02-07 Assigned Sex and Types of Violence Directed at Nonbinary and Questioning Youth: Implications for Physical and Psychological Well-being University of British Columbia Publication 2025-01-30 Sexual Behavior in Sexual Minority and Non-Minority Youth from Eight European Countries Sexual minority youth, compared to their heterosexual peers, have a disproportionate burden of sexual risks, but it remains unclear whether such inequalities exist across cultures and countries. We used data from eight European countries participating in the 2018 Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study to analyze sexual behavior in representative samples of adolescents aged 14.5–16.5 years (N = 10,583). Overall, 19.1% of the participants reported that they had had sexual intercourse. Compared to their non-minority peers (those exclusively attracted to opposite-gender partners), sexual minority youth – attracted to same- or both-gender partners – were significantly more likely to report having had sexual intercourse and sex before age 14. Those attracted to both-gender partners had similar odds of having had sexual intercourse, but higher odds of not using condoms, or neither condoms nor contraceptive pill use at last intercourse. Those not attracted to anyone had similar odds of having had sexual intercourse but were more likely to report early sex and not using protection at last intercourse. Adjusting for gender, country and family affluence did not substantially change the pattern of results. In interpreting the findings, the onset of puberty, sexual abuse, stigma management and experimentation with sexual identity should be considered. We discuss the practical, clinical and research implications of the findings.

University of British Columbia Publication 2024-08-28 Teen pregnancy involvement among African, Caribbean and Black adolescent boys and girls: A scoping review Objectives This study aims to investigate the incidence, associated factors and interventions to address teen pregnancy involvement (TPI) among African, Caribbean and Black (ACB) adolescents in North America. Design We conducted a scoping review of the literature, guided by the social-ecological model. Data sources Studies were retrieved from databases such as Ovid Medline, Ovid Embase, CINAHL, CAB Direct and Google Scholar and imported into COVIDENCE for screening. Eligibility criteria The Joanna Briggs Institute scoping reviews protocol guided the establishment of eligibility criteria. Included studies focused on rates, associated factors and interventions related to TPI among ACB boys and girls aged 10–19 in North America. The publication time frame was restricted to 2010–2023, encompassing both peer-reviewed and non-peer-reviewed studies with diverse settings. Data extraction and synthesis Data were extracted from 32 articles using a form developed by the principal author, focusing on variables aligned with the research question. Results The scoping review revealed a dearth of knowledge in Canadian and other North American literature on TPI in ACB adolescents. Despite an overall decline in teen pregnancy rates, disparities persist, with interventions such as postpartum prescription of long-acting birth control and teen mentorship programmes proving effective. Conclusion The findings highlight the need for increased awareness, research and recognition of male involvement in adolescent pregnancies. Addressing gaps in housing, employment, healthcare, sexual health education and health systems policies for marginalised populations is crucial to mitigating TPI among ACB adolescents. Impact The review underscores the urgent need for more knowledge from other North American countries, particularly those with growing ACB migrant populations.

Health and well-being needs of Indigenous adolescents: a protocol for a scoping review of qualitative studies Improving the health of Indigenous adolescents is central to addressing the health inequities faced by Indigenous peoples. To achieve this, it is critical to understand what is needed from the perspectives of Indigenous adolescents themselves. There have been many qualitative studies that capture the perspectives of Indigenous young people, but synthesis of these has been limited to date. This scoping review seeks to understand the specific health needs and priorities of Indigenous adolescents aged 10-24 years captured via qualitative studies conducted across Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, Canada, the USA, Greenland and Sami populations (Norway and Sweden). A team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers from these nations will systematically search PubMed (including the MEDLINE, PubMed Central and Bookshelf databases), CINAHL, Embase, Scopus, the Informit Indigenous and Health Collections, Google Scholar, Arctic Health, the Circumpolar Health Bibliographic Database, Native Health Database, iPortal and NZresearch.org, as well as specific websites and clearinghouses within each nation for qualitative studies. We will limit our search to articles published in any language during the preceding 5 years given that needs may have changed significantly over time. Two independent reviewers will identify relevant articles using a two-step process, with disagreements resolved by a third reviewer and the wider research group. Data will then be extracted from included articles using a standardised form, with descriptive synthesis focussing on key needs and priorities. This scoping review will be conducted and reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. Ethics approval was not required for this review. Findings will be disseminated via a peer-reviewed journal article and will inform a broader international collaboration for Indigenous adolescent health to develop evidence-based actions and solutions.

Saewyc, E. The Social Negotiations of “Girls Like Us”: What Text-Messaging Dyadic Interactions Reveal About the Lives of Queer, Lesbian, and Bisexual Girls Living in the United States While there is emerging literature addressing the gendered nature of digital communication between youth, research about the everyday communications, friendships, and social relations of LGBTQ+ youth remains sparse. This study explores how 14 to 18-year-old, cisgender lesbian, bisexual, and queer girls living in the United States come to understand themselves and others in dyadic text messaging conversations of girls who were previously unknown to each other. Using grounded theory, this secondary data analysis identified the pervasiveness of heteronormative frameworks in participants’ communications with each other. Findings indicate that both digitally-mediated expressions of selfhood and queer identity are dynamic processes significantly shaped by normative discourses and participants’ desire to connect. Drawing on and contributing to girlhood and youth studies, this research provides insight into how queer cisgender girls construct literacies of self, sexuality, and gender, and establish connection, and how they resist heteronormativity to validate their own and each other’s sexual identities.

Cet article a pour but de : 1) faire un portrait des jeunes TNB ayant vécu un ou des types d’abus ; 2) cerner le contexte particulier de cette violence et de ses répercussions sur le bien-être des jeunes TNB. Les données ont été recueillies dans le cadre de « l’Enquête canadienne sur la santé des jeunes trans et non binaires » (ECSJT) menée au pays en 2019. L’échantillon est composé de 220 jeunes TNB âgé·e·s de 14 à 25 ans résidant dans la province de Québec. Des analyses de Test T et Chi carré ont été menées. Elles montrent que près de la moitié de l’échantillon a subi des violences sexuelles (44,1 %) et près de 20 % de l’échantillon a été blessé physiquement par un membre de la famille, phénomène plus fréquemment rencontré chez les 14 à 17 ans (34,2 %) que chez les 18 à 25 ans (14,6 %). En contrôlant pour l’âge, il y avait une association significative entre les liens familiaux et les chances d’être victime (p <.001) ou d’avoir été témoin (p =.03) de violences impliquant un·e membre de la famille. Les résultats de l’enquête en ligne sont cohérents avec les différentes études soulignant les abus et la violence vécus par les jeunes des minorités sexuelles.
