Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Social Determinants of Health
  • LGBTQ+ Health

Background:

  • Cultural and religious factors significantly shape healthcare provider attitudes.
  • Understanding medical students' perspectives on LGBTI+ individuals is crucial for equitable healthcare.
  • Existing medical curricula may not adequately address the needs of diverse patient populations, including LGBTI+ individuals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the knowledge, sexual attitudes, and levels of homophobia among medical students concerning LGBTI+ individuals.
  • To explore the interplay between cultural, religious influences, and professional attitudes in medical students.
  • To identify gaps in medical education regarding sexual and gender minorities.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study involving 324 medical students.
  • Utilized validated instruments: Hudson and Ricketts Homophobia scale, Attitudes Towards Lesbians and Gay Men scale, and Hendrick Sexual Attitudes scale.
  • Data analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests.

Main Results:

  • The mean score on the Hudson and Ricketts Homophobia scale was 58.50.
  • Findings suggest that medical students perceive their education on LGBTI+ health as insufficient.
  • Significant variations in attitudes and knowledge levels were observed, influenced by socio-demographic factors.

Conclusions:

  • Medical students' education regarding LGBTI+ individuals requires enhancement to ensure comprehensive and inclusive healthcare.
  • Curriculum development is recommended to address the identified knowledge and attitude deficits.
  • Improving medical education is essential for providing equitable health services to all societal segments.
