Base: 5,046 Ipsos KnowledgePanel respondents plus 392 recruited from opt-in panels. Q3c/Q3d and Q4a-Q4c were split-sample (Form 1 N=2,726; Form 2 N=2,712; Q4a N=1,361; Q4b N=1,365). PRRI labels this fielding 'Mar. 2023' in the AVA LGBTQ trend tables, so this record replaces a separate March 2023 AVA wave rather than duplicating it. This is PRRI's single richest transgender instrument: it carries the pronoun-comfort items, the social-contagion item, the split-sample school-harm experiment and the age-graded curriculum battery that appear nowhere else in PRRI's series.

Wording notes: anchors the item to the respondent's own visual judgment ('your perception of their appearance')
