Spolne usmerjenosti in kako jih preučevati

Spolnost je pomemben del življenja vsakega posameznika. Ena od razvojnih nalog, povezanih s tem, je integracija spolne identitete v lastno samopodobo. To vključuje tudi ozaveščanje lastne spolne usmerjenosti, kar ni vedno preprosto. V raziskavah obstajajo različni koncepti, kako je mogoče spolno usmerjenost »meriti« ali razumeti. V predavanju bodo predstavljeni ključni koncepti ter načini, kako lahko razvoj identitete bolje razumemo in raziskujemo z vidika psihologije.

Sexual orientations and how to study them

Sexuality is an important part of every individual's life. A related developmental task is to integrate one's sexual identity into one's self-concept. This includes becoming aware of one's sexual orientation, which is not always easy. In research, there are different concepts of how sexual orientation can be 'measured' or understood. This talk will present the main constructs and look at ways in which identity development can be better understood and explored from a psychological perspective.
