人们经常自我认同为同性恋、双性恋和变性者（LGBT）社区的盟友。这项研究探讨了LGBT个人在什么基础上认为他人是盟友，并记录了感知盟友关系的后果。研究1a（n= 40）和1b（n= 69）收集了LGBT参与者对盟友关系的开放式描述。对回答的编码表明，成为盟友有多个组成部分：（a）对该群体不持偏见，（B）采取行动反对歧视和不平等，（c）在讨论男女同性恋、双性恋和变性者问题时对自己的观点持谦逊态度。在研究2a（n= 161）和2b（n= 319，具有全国代表性的特点），盟友规模的开发和验证一般和特定的关系背景下，分别。研究2b还表明，LGBT个体对亲密他人盟友关系的看法与他们自己的幸福感和与亲密他人的关系质量呈正相关。研究3，一个实验，表明，nonprejudice和行动有一个互动的影响感知的盟友关系，这样的行动增加感知的盟友关系时，偏见是低（与高）。研究4是对LGBT参与者和外群体室友的每周体验研究。认为一个人的室友是一个很好的盟友预测更高的自尊，更大的主观幸福感，更好的关系质量与室友之间和参与者。此外，一周内感知的盟友关系与LGBT个体的心理健康和下周与室友的关系质量的增加有关。这项研究推进了对LGBT个体的盟友关系的了解，并确定了盟友关系的内部和人际利益。
People often self-identify as allies to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. This research examined on what basis LGBT individuals perceive others to be allies and documents the consequences of perceived allyship. Studies 1a (n= 40) and 1b (n= 69) collected open-ended descriptions of allyship provided by LGBT participants. Coding of the responses suggested multiple components to being an ally:(a) being nonprejudiced toward the group,(b) taking action against discrimination and inequality, and (c) having humility about one’s perspective in discussions about LGBT issues. In Studies 2a (n= 161) and 2b (n= 319, with nationally representative characteristics), an allyship scale was developed and validated for general and specific relational contexts, respectively. Study 2b also showed that LGBT individuals’ perceptions of close others’ allyship were positively associated with their own well-being and relationship quality with the close other. Study 3, an experiment, demonstrated that nonprejudice and action had an interactive effect on perceived allyship, such that action increased perceived allyship more when prejudice was low (vs. high). Study 4 was a weekly experience study of LGBT participants and an outgroup roommate. Perceiving one’s roommate to be a good ally predicted higher self-esteem, greater subjective well-being, and better relationship quality with the roommate, both between and within participants. Furthermore, perceived allyship in 1 week was associated with increases in LGBT individuals’ mental health and relationship quality with the roommate the following week. This research advances knowledge about what allyship means to LGBT individuals and identifies intra-and interpersonal benefits of allyship.
