My Capstone in Gender Diversity requires a literature review and I would like to investigate current research and studies focusing on the short- and long-term effects of conversion therapy. I have found a few new articles but would like to have more recent articles to use as references. I am also open to any advice that will enhance this project.
Recent articles are sometimes presentations at conferences before publication, so try a search of relevant conferences that have titles and authors of presentations available. Then contact the authors for permission to cite their findings.
Also, try the search term, reparative therapy.
There are a bunch of recent articles on this!
The journal; Psychology of Sexual Orientation and Gender Diversity recently had several articles published on SOCE
The Report of the APA Task Force on Appropriate Therapeutic Responses to Sexual Orientation: http://www.apa.org/pi/lgbt/resources/sexual-orientation.aspx
Two really great papers on SOCE:
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jmft.12040/abstract
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1752-0606.2008.00065.x/abstract
Both of those should be helpful! :)
Hi Loretta, it is a controversial topic but I am glad you are going about this as a scientist. When reading your report/thesis, the author should not know your stance. There are some good resources at the Pan American Health Organization. This article is a start. In seeking research on this topic, I found that most were biased, either pro or against. Good luck.
