We examined whether students' experiences in their Gender-Sexuality Alliances (GSAs) over the school year predicted positive development or thriving in the form of higher relative levels of hope at the end of the school year and whether GSA experiences also promoted resilience by attenuating the link between victimization and lower relative levels of hope among 366 student members of 38 GSAs (M_age = 15.53 years; 85% sexual minority; 55% cisgender female; 72% White). Our findings indicated that, when considered one at a time, students' perceptions of receiving more social-emotional support, receiving more information and resources, and undertaking more advocacy in their GSA throughout the school year predicted higher relative levels of hope at the end of that school year (adjusted for students' initial hope at the beginning of the year). When considering all three GSA-based experiences concurrently, receiving more information and resources in their GSA had a unique predictive association with hope and it reduced the extent to which reported experiences of victimization at school predicted diminished hope at the end of the year. There was a similar, though statistically non-significant, moderating trend for advocacy.

我们研究了学生在学年期间在性别 - 性联盟 (GSA) 中的经历是否预示着积极的发展或在学年结束时以更高的相对希望水平的形式蓬勃发展，以及 GSA 的经历是否也通过减弱38 个 GSA 的 366 名学生成员（M_年龄 = 15.53 年；85% 性少数；55% 顺性别女性；72% 白）。我们的研究结果表明，当一次考虑一个人时，学生在整个学年中获得更多社会情感支持、获得更多信息和资源以及在他们的 GSA 中进行更多宣传的看法预测了在结束时的相对希望水平更高那个学年（根据学生在年初的最初希望进行调整）。当同时考虑所有三个基于 GSA 的经历时，在他们的 GSA 中接收更多信息和资源与希望具有独特的预测关联，它降低了报告的学校受害经历预测年底希望减少的程度。倡导也有类似的、虽然在统计上不显着的缓和趋势。
