本研究探讨了同性性行为在三组男同性恋者和双性恋者的身份认同和出柜过程中的作用。男性识别其同性吸引力的顺序被编码为以性别为中心（在第一次同性性接触后标记性身份）或以身份为中心（在与男性发生性关系之前标记性身份）。该项目休息是否发展序列是一个重要的预测因素，后来调整性身份和关系的参与。研究结果表明，以性别为中心的男性的比例下降，作为一个功能的年龄组。此外，以性为中心的男性对其他男性的同性恋恐惧程度更高，一生中有更多的性伴侣，以及更多的异性恋性关系和浪漫关系。因此，男性采取的身份和标记他们的性别身份的路线是一个很好的预测未来的调整和关系的参与。
This study examined the role of same-sex sexual behavior in the identification and coming-out process among three cohorts of gay and bisexual males. The sequence through which the males identified their same-sex attractions was coded as either sex-centered (labeling of sexual identity after first same-sex sexual encounter) or identity-centered (labeling of sexual identity before engaging in sex with males). The project rested whether developmental sequence was a significant predictor of later adjustment to sexual identity and relationship involvement. Findings demonstrate that the proportion of sex-centered males decreased as a function of age cohort. Moreover, sex-centered males reported higher levels of homophobia toward other males, more lifetime sexual partners, and more heterosexual sexual and romantic relationships. Thus, the route males take to identity and label their sexual identity is a good predictor of future adjustment and relationship involvement.
