INTL Day of Pink & Saint Mary’s University

Research

The International Day of Pink is very proud of our collaboration with the Sobey School of Business, at Saint Mary’s University.

Participate in our current research:

Right now we are looking for participants for a study designed to understand the determinants of financial decision making among 2SLGBTQIA+ people of Canada.

Please note that:

  • To participate, no knowledge of finance and related fields is required.

  • The study, conducted online, will take about 15 minutes. The participants will be paid at least $5 and to a maximum of $30, depending on the outcome of their decisions and chance.

  • After completing the study, the compensations will be emailed to you in a few days, as a Gift Card, where you will have your choice of outlets, including Amazon.Ca.

  • You must be at least 18 years of age, a legal resident of Canada, and identify as a member of 2SLGBTQ+ communities to participate.

  • Each person can only participate once.

Read our recent publication:

Together, we recently published: In or out? Citizenship outcomes of working sexual and gender minority people of Canada.

This paper explores the citizenship outcomes of gender and sexual minorities. Using a large original survey of Canadian sexual and gender minorities and the Canadian General Social Survey, this article first examines the extent of political inclusion of sexual and gender minorities, as measured by sense of belonging to Canada and the province of residence, likelihood of voting, and confidence in the police and the justice system.

Sexual and gender minorities are generally found to have a markedly weaker sense of belonging to Canada and confidence in its institutions. Next, these patterns are re-examined accounting for the degree of outness.

The results indicate considerable discrepancies across sexual and gender minorities in how outness affects their citizenship outcomes. In particular, it seems that the sociopolitical profile of these groups plays an important mediating role in the effects of outness on their citizenship outcomes.
