N2 - OBJECTIVES: In this single-case-by-group comparison, we examine whether previously found cisgender differences in paranoid ideation after a terror attack are also seen in a transgender male emergency worker.
METHODS: Sixty emergency personnel who were exposed to the 2016 terror attack in Berlin were evaluated 3 to 4 and 21-25 mo after the attack.
RESULTS: On paranoid ideation, the transgender male showed higher scores than cisgender males (+2 standard deviations [SD]) and the overall group (+1 SD).
CONCLUSIONS: This underpins the previously identified gender effects. It would be useful to consider specified pre- and postdeployment modules that take cis- and transgender differences into account.
