Abstract
The goal of this research is comparison of happiness of persons suffering from gender identity
disorder before and after sexuality change surgery. The sampling method was from “available”
type. The assumptions were selected based on happiness differences of sample persons before and
after sexuality change surgery. Data was gathered by a sample of 24 persons (12 persons before
surgery and 12 persons after surgery) using Oxford Happiness Inventory (1989). The findings
showed that happiness level had increased for after-surgery group than before-surgery group, but
this increment was not significant. The significance level of 95% indicates that there is a
difference between before and after surgery groups.
