    Transgender Identifying People’s Appraisals of Gender- Based Violence & Continuous Traumatic Stress
    (University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, 2024) Ngakane, Mpho Sharni
    This study aims to explore and understand how transgender people who are at risk of GBV-related continuous traumatic stress experience gender discrimination & traumatic stress and how they appraise this risk. Participants were recruited through purposive snowball sampling techniques. Six transgender participants were interviewed, and the results were interpreted through interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA). This analysis found a superordinate theme of Otherness, with subthemes being the other (social deviance and intersectionality), CTS (exclusion and violence), liminality (in/visibility and intrusion), and responses to GBV (maladaptive and adaptive).
