Scoring

“The results were summarized in two sum scores for gender identity and gender role behavior: in the past 12 months and during the entire lifetime (range sum score: 2–14 for each period) and two sum scores for cross-gender identity and cross-gender role behavior: in the past 12 months and during the entire lifetime (range sum score: 5–35 for each period). Low scores on gender identity and gender role behavior (Factor1) indicate a distinct sex-typical gender identity and gender role behavior in the specified periods. Higher scores on cross-gender identity and cross-gender role behavior (Factor 2) indicate a cross-gender identity and more cross-gender role behaviors.” (Ediati et al., 2015)
