OBJECTIVES Several studies have documented the negative impact of microaggressions on anxiety among Black individuals. However, few investigations have examined the impact of microaggressions on Black college students' worries about their future employment and potential moderating factors. We examined whether there would be an association between microaggressions and worries about future employment. Furthermore, both social support and academic achievement (measured by grade point average) were purported to moderate this association. METHOD Secondary data analysis was used, with the study sample consisting of Black college students (n = 225) from a predominately White institution. Participants had a mean age of 20.43 years (SD = 1.79), with females comprising 74.80% of the sample. RESULTS Results revealed that social support buffered the effect of microaggressions for low-achieving students, while a buffering effect of social support was not found for high-achieving students. CONCLUSIONS Perceived social support offers some protection against the exposure of racial microaggressions, although high-achieving Black college students (the most vulnerable to potential isolation and academic pressure) may not benefit from overall social support.

微侵略对黑人大学生对其未来就业的担忧的影响：社会支持和学业成就的调节作用。

目标多项研究已证明微攻击对黑人个体的焦虑产生了负面影响。但是，很少有调查研究过微观侵略对黑人大学生对其未来就业和潜在调节因素的担忧的影响。我们研究了微观攻击与对未来就业的担忧之间是否存在关联。此外，据称社会支持和学业成就（由平均绩点衡量）可以缓和这种联系。方法使用二次数据分析，研究样本由来自白人大学的黑人大学生（n = 225）组成。参与者的平均年龄为20.43岁（SD = 1.79），女性占样本的74.80％。结果结果表明，社会支持对低成就学生的微攻击具有缓冲作用，而对高成就学生则没有社会支持的缓冲作用。结论尽管高成就的黑人大学生（最容易遭受潜在孤立和学习压力的人）可能无法从整体社会支持中受益，但感知的社会支持为抵御种族微侵略提供了一定的保护。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。尽管成绩优异的黑人大学生（最容易遭受潜在的孤立和学习压力的人）可能无法从整体社会支持中受益。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。尽管成绩优异的黑人大学生（最容易遭受潜在孤立和学习压力的人）可能无法从总体社会支持中受益。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
