Sociodemographic information of the participants was first collected. Participants then completed the GIDYQ-AA, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 scale, the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and a suicidal ideation assessment. A total of 2,533 participants with a mean age of 19.30 (SD = 1.19) years were recruited. Of the participants, 841 (33.2%) were cis men, 1,589 (62.7%) were cis women, 66 (2.6%) self-identified as transgender, 17 (0.7%) self-identified as non-binary, and 20 (0.8%) self-identified as gender queer.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title><jats:p>The GIDYQ-AA had high internal consistency with a Cronbach\u2019s alpha = 0.89. Exploratory factor analysis showed that the GIDYQ-AA had a four-factor structure in China. The GIDYQ-AA was significantly correlated with anxiety symptoms (r = \u20130.32, P &amp;lt; .01), depressive symptoms (r = \u20130.33, P &amp;lt; .01), and suicidal ideation (r = \u20130.20, P &amp;lt; .01).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical Translation<\/jats:title><jats:p>The Chinese version of GIDYQ-AA is a useful measurement with high practical value, which could promote the assessment and research of GD across China or among Chinese migrants in other countries.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Strengths and Limitations<\/jats:title><jats:p>This is the first study assessing the psychometric properties of the GIDYQ-AA in Chinese adolescents and young adults.
