我们考察了女同性恋者、男同性恋者和双性恋者(LGB)员工获得的支持类型(即主管、同事、组织)的差异,以及支持类型与相关结果(工作和生活满意度、性取向的外显性)之间的关系。对99名LGB员工进行了调查,结果表明,对LGB员工的支持最好被视为由主管、同事和组织支持组成的多维结构。总体而言,主管支持与工作满意度相关,同事支持与生活满意度相关,对LGB员工的组织支持与外向相关。因此,对LGB员工的支持关系到重要的结果。为增加对LGB员工的组织支持提供了切实可行的建议。(C)2008年威利期刊公司。
We examine differences in type of support (i.e., supervisor, coworker, organizational) received by lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) employees and the relationship between type of support and relevant outcomes (job and life satisfaction, outness of sexual orientation). Surveys were administered to 99 LGB individuals, and results indicate that support is best viewed as a multidimensional construct composed of supervisor, coworker, and organizational support for LGB employees. Overall, supervisor support was related to job satisfaction, coworker support was related to life satisfaction, and organizational support for LGB employees was related to outness. Thus, support for LGB employees is related to important outcomes. Practical suggestions for increasing organizational support for LGB employees are offered. (c) 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
