Research has found perceived discrimination to be a risk factor for mental health concerns among lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) people, but less clarity exists linking perceived discrimination with well-being outcomes. Building from Meyer's (2003) minority stress model, the present study examined the links between perceived discrimination and the 3 components of subjective well-being: positive affect, negative affect, and life satisfaction. Self-esteem and stigma consciousness were explored as empirically and theoretically implied moderators. In a sample of 368 LGB people, structural equation modeling results suggested that discrimination was not significantly associated with positive affect or life satisfaction but had a significant positive relation with negative affect. Self-esteem moderated the associations between discrimination and positive and negative affect, and stigma consciousness moderated the link with negative affect. Practical implications and directions for future research are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record
研究发现，感知到的歧视是女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋（LGB）群体心理健康问题的一个风险因素，但关于感知到的歧视与幸福结果之间的联系，目前还不太明确。基于迈耶（2003年）的少数群体压力模型，本研究考察了感知到的歧视与主观幸福感的三个组成部分之间的联系：积极情绪、消极情绪和生活满意度。自尊和耻辱意识被作为经验和理论上暗示的调节变量进行了探讨。在一个由368名LGB群体组成的样本中，结构方程模型结果表明，歧视与积极情绪或生活满意度没有显著关联，但与消极情绪有显著的正相关关系。自尊调节了歧视与积极和消极情绪之间的关联，耻辱意识调节了与消极情绪的联系。本文还讨论了实际意义和未来研究的方向。（《心理学文摘数据库记录》）
