Abstract
This commentary critically examines the psychometric validation of the "LGBTIQ+ Themes in Literature Education" (LTiLE) scale, a tool developed by Ortega-Sánchez to measure attitudes toward integrating LGBTIQ+ themes in literature education. It highlights challenges in measuring these attitudes, and underscores the urgent need to address the implications of gender-based score disparities. The commentary advocates for a mixed-methods approach to enhance understanding and underscores the necessity for ongoing exploration of LGBTIQ+ representation in literature education, advocating for more inclusive pedagogical practices considering diverse perspectives.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Homosexuality is an internationally acclaimed, peer-reviewed publication devoted to publishing a wide variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary scholarship to foster a thorough understanding of the complexities, nuances, and the multifaceted aspects of sexuality and gender. The chief aim of the journal is to publish thought-provoking scholarship by researchers, community activists, and scholars who employ a range of research methodologies and who offer a variety of perspectives to continue shaping knowledge production in the arenas of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) studies and queer studies. The Journal of Homosexuality is committed to offering substantive, accessible reading to researchers and general readers alike in the hope of: spurring additional research, offering ideas to integrate into educational programs at schools, colleges & universities, or community-based organizations, and manifesting activism against sexual and gender prejudice (e.g., homophobia, biphobia and transphobia), including the promotion of sexual and gender justice.
