Sources
Verification note. Australian percentages read from Ipsos Australia's own release; methodology (fieldwork 17 Feb - 3 Mar 2023, Global Advisor, ~1,000 Australians aged 16-74, representative of the under-75 adult population) read from the 'About the study' section of the same release. Ipsos states the study had no external sponsor. The release gives the Australian agree percentages but not the full agree/disagree/don't-know distributions, so only the 'agree' rows are recorded. Item wording is Ipsos' statement text as reproduced in the release; the exact agree/disagree scale labels were not published on this page, so the scale stem is marked non-verbatim.
Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.
Questions asked (7)
employment, housing and public accommodation protection for transgender people
How much do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? (Australian results from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 Global Advisor survey)
Transgender people should be protected from discrimination in employment, housing and access to business, such as restaurants and stores.
Wording reconstructed from: statement text as reproduced in the Ipsos Australia release; the surrounding agree/disagree stem was not published on that page
Wording notes: asked in a long LGBT+ battery
neutral — a plain protective statement; agreement is the affirming response but the statement is not loaded
Subgroup figures (1)
gender-affirming care for transgender teenagers with parental consent
How much do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? (Australian results from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 Global Advisor survey)
With parental consent, transgender teenagers should be allowed to receive gender-affirming care (e.g. counselling and hormone replacement treatment).
Wording reconstructed from: statement text as reproduced in the Ipsos Australia release
Wording notes: conditions access on parental consent | defines gender-affirming care as counselling and hormone replacement, not surgery
neutral — the parental-consent condition and the counselling/hormones examples make the item concrete rather than loaded, though the framing excludes surgery and so is not comparable with surgery-focused items
Subgroup figures (1)
single-sex facility access matching gender identity
How much do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? (Australian results from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 Global Advisor survey)
Transgender people should be allowed to use single-sex facilities (e.g. public restrooms) that correspond to the gender they identify with.
Wording reconstructed from: statement text as reproduced in the Ipsos Australia release
neutral — neutral descriptive phrasing of the affirming position
Subgroup figures (1)
non-binary option on government-issued documents
How much do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? (Australian results from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 Global Advisor survey)
Government-issued documents, such as passports, should include an option other than 'male' and 'female' for people who do not identify as either.
Wording reconstructed from: statement text as reproduced in the Ipsos Australia release
neutral — descriptive phrasing with no evaluative language
Subgroup figures (1)
insurance coverage of gender transition
How much do you agree or disagree with each of the following statements? (Australian results from the Ipsos LGBT+ Pride 2023 Global Advisor survey)
Health insurance systems should cover the cost of gender transition no differently than the costs of other medical procedures.
Wording reconstructed from: statement text as reproduced in the Ipsos Australia release
neutral — parity framing stated without evaluative language
Subgroup figures (1)
perceived level of discrimination against transgender people
How much discrimination, if any, do transgender people face in Australia today?
Wording reconstructed from: paraphrased from the Ipsos Australia release, which reports the 'a great deal / fair amount' net only
A great deal or a fair amount
62%
Wording notes: only the net 'great deal/fair amount' figure was published
unclear — the exact wording and scale labels were not published in the Australian release, so the item cannot be assessed as written
Subgroup figures (1)
knowing a transgender or non-binary person, and transgender self-identification
Do you have a relative, friend or work colleague who is transgender? / non-binary, gender non-conforming or gender fluid?
Wording reconstructed from: paraphrased from the Ipsos Australia release
Knows someone who is transgender
18%
Knows someone who is non-binary, gender non-conforming or gender fluid
18%
Describes self as transexual [sic, as published by Ipsos Australia]
