Six personality variables (social anxiety, trait anxiety, locus of control, sensitization, depression, and self concept) were correlated with variables relevant to a positive gay identity (degree of communication about sexual preference and degree of comfort being gay) and to relationship involvement (being in a gay relationship, number of months in a gay relationship, and living with a partner) in a volunteer, nonclinical sample of 51 gay males. Men who informed others of their sexual preference were low on trait anxiety, sensitization, and depression and high on self concept. Men comfortable with their gay identity were low on social anxiety, sensitization, and depression and high on self concept. Men involved in long-term relationships were low in trait anxiety, had an internal locus of control, and were low in depression. Men living with a partner had a higher self concept than men not living with a partner. Results are discussed in terms of previous studies of gay male relationships.
在一个由51名男同性恋者组成的志愿者非临床样本中，六个个性变量（社交焦虑、特质焦虑、控制点、敏感化、抑郁和自我概念）与与积极的同性恋身份相关的变量（性取向交流程度和作为同性恋者的舒适程度）以及与恋爱关系参与度（处于同性恋关系、同性恋关系的月数以及与伴侣同居）相关。向他人透露自己性取向的男性特质焦虑、敏感化和抑郁程度较低，自我概念较高。对自己的同性恋身份感到舒适的男性社交焦虑、敏感化和抑郁程度较低，自我概念较高。处于长期恋爱关系中的男性特质焦虑较低，具有内控点，且抑郁程度较低。与伴侣同居的男性比未与伴侣同居的男性有更高的自我概念。研究结果将根据之前关于男同性恋关系的研究进行讨论。
