Concealing a sexual minority identity at work has been linked to adverse health and employment outcomes. The authors of this paper examine whether LGBQ employee levels of concealment from coworkers and supervisors are linked to perceived workplace climate and LGBQ-identity centrality. 2010-2011 data were used; N = 319 LGBQ full or part-time employees. Multiple regression with moderation was used to test the hypotheses. Support and hostility in the workplace each had a negative main effect on concealment from coworkers as well as supervisors. The interaction between support and centrality was also significant. LGBQ employees who placed greater importance on their sexual orientation were more likely to disclose that identity to supervisors in the face of hostility than those with less central identities. Thus, sexual minorities may be more responsive to workplace climate when they have more central identities.
在工作中隐瞒性少数群体身份与不良健康和就业结果有关。本文作者研究了 LGBQ 员工对同事和主管隐瞒的程度是否与感知的工作场所氛围和 LGBQ 身份核心度有关。使用了 2010-2011 年的数据；N = 319 名 LGBQ 全职或兼职员工。采用多元回归和调节作用来检验假设。工作场所的支持和敌意对与同事以及主管隐瞒的程度都有负面影响。支持和核心度的相互作用也具有显著性。在面对敌意时，那些对自己的性取向更重视的 LGBQ 员工更有可能向主管披露自己的身份，而那些身份核心度较低的员工则不太可能这样做。因此，当性少数群体的身份更核心时，他们可能对工作场所氛围更敏感。
