The topic of gender identity had previously received less attention from researchers. Already, the subject of gender identity had not been researched in detail. This effect is seen today in the few literature materials that are available on the topic. Therefore, new research encounters a hurdle when referring to related literature. Notably, the documentation of social experiments by competent social psychologists has been lean.
However, this observation is being overturned as new research is being conducted to identify the cause of gender identity crises in children and adolescents (Wiesgram, 2016). Research has led psychologists such as the American Psychological Association to classify gender identity crises as one of the mental disorders. According to the American Psychological Association (2013), gender dysphoria is amongst the many psychological disorders classified in the current DSM-5 manual.
There are also conflicting arguments as to whether the environment plays a vital role in gender identity development in children. Gender dysphoria is debated. However, it is generally agreed that gender dysphoria is a mental health condition in which biological sex identity of individual conflicts with the perception of the person’s gender (American College of Pediatricians, 2017). According to the American College of Pediatricians (2017), the biological sex is already pre-determined before a child is born. Also, it is stated that gender dysphoria is a condition of the mind but not an issue with sexual identity. However, despite the role of hormones in influencing gender dysphoria, environmental factors have been attributed to the disorder. American College of Pediatricians (2017), identify the nurturing of this behavior as unhealthy. However, the main topic of discussion, gender identity development in children remains to be one that eludes controversial findings.
