Verification note. Wording, response options and frequencies read directly from the 2022 GSS Codebook (Release 4, produced 21 November 2024), titled 'Codebook and Unweighted Frequencies'. Percentages are UNWEIGHTED and are the 'PCT excluding reserve codes' column. Field dates from the codebook narrative. The two response-rate figures are printed side by side in the codebook's response-rate table for the two sample components; which is which is not fully clear from the extracted text.
Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.
Do you describe yourself as male, female, or transgender?
Wording notes: 'transgender' offered as a mutually exclusive alternative to male/female
unclear — single-item mutually exclusive format undercounts trans respondents who identify as male or female
To the best of your knowledge, does your most recent sexual partner describe themselves as male, female, or transgender?
Wording notes: proxy report about a third party
unclear — proxy reports of a partner's gender identity are subject to both the respondent's knowledge and the same mutually-exclusive-category problem as SEXNOW1
Are any of your biological children transgender or non-binary?
Wording notes: asked only on the GSS Next follow-on; requires the GSS Next-specific weights WTSSPS_NEXT or WTSSNRPS_NEXT | collapses transgender and non-binary into one category
double_barreled — combines 'transgender' and 'non-binary' into a single yes/no, so the two cannot be separated
