Gender Identity: Gender identity is an individual's deeply felt sense of being male, female, or something else. It may or may not align with the sex they were assigned at birth.
Transgender Participants: Transgender participants refer to individuals whose gender identity does not match the sex they were assigned at birth. They may identify as a gender different from their assigned sex.
Ethical Concerns: Ethical concerns encompass moral principles and guidelines that researchers must follow when conducting studies. These concerns include ensuring participant safety, informed consent, privacy/confidentiality, and avoiding harm or discrimination towards specific groups.
