Abstract
Transgender students are vulnerable to both mental and physical health problems which impact their quality of life (QOL). this study was mainly focused on the relationships of stigma on the QOL of male-to-female- transgender among university students in Northeastern of Thailand. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 765 male-to-female- transgender students who were selected from 17 universities of the Northeast of Thailand using a multistage random sampling to response to a self-administered structured questionnaire. The generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) was performed to identify factors associated with quality of life when controlling the effects of co-variates, presenting adjusted OR and 95% confidence interval. Among 765 male-to-female- transgender students, More than half of them had good QOL (52.81%; 95%CI = 49.25-56.33). The Generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) observed that factors associated with good QOL including; moderate-low stigmatization (adj.OR=6.39 ; 95%CI = 2.72-15.02), good health behaviors (adj.OR=1.88 ; 95% 1.47-2.86), no stress problem (adj.OR=1.81 ; 95%CI = 1.30-2.51), good self-acceptance (adj.OR=1.67 ; 95%CI = 1.37-2.03) and good social environment (adj.OR=1.41 ; 95%CI = 1.13-1.76). The findings could provide data to support evidence for family, community, societal, relevant sectors under the Ministry of Public Health and Ministry of Education as well as local administration organizations, in order to promote quality of life in transgenders effectively.
