Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming (TGNC) individuals experience stress due to discriminatory events in society. This stress causes them to become vulnerable to physical and mental health problems. However, there is no validated scale that can be used in the assessment of TGNC people in counseling in Turkey. Gender Minority Stress and Resilience Measure (GMSR) is a scale that evaluates the stress and resilience factors of TGNC individuals. The aim of this study is to investigate the validity of the Turkish version of GMSR (GMSR-Tr). Our study presents preliminary evidence of the validity of the GMSR-Tr.
