dc.description.abstract | Researchers suggest that a disgust increases homonegative attitudes toward gay men. While a sizable number of studies have observed this association, to date, no one has attempted to meta-analytically review this corpus of research. The author of the current study addresses this gap by conducting a meta-analysis of published and unpublished work examining disgust and homonegativity. Fourteen articles (12 published, 2 unpublished) containing 17 studies were analysed (N = 7,322). The averaged effect size for disgust sensitivity studies was moderate-large (d = 0.64) and for disgust induction studies the effect was large (d = 0.77). Effect size heterogeneity was not evidenced. The results of the analysis, future directions, and recommendations based on the systematic review of the literature are outlined.
