The shared experience of societal discrimination and affirmation can provide a basis for empathy among members of different marginalized groups. However, the potential mechanisms and moderating conditions involved in this process have been little studied. This experiment examined how perceived societal (in)equity of one's own group may influence one's reaction to other marginalized groups. We randomly assigned 310 cisgender White lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adults to conditions varying in LGB (in)equity salience (discrimination, affirmation, control) and in the target outgroup identity (transgender, Black). Participants completed a survey assessing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors related to the outgroup, that is, indicators of allyship. Based on the emerging theory of stigma-based solidarity, we expected LGB discrimination to improve intergroup relations with transgender people (i.e. a group readily sharing a common superordinate identity with LGB people) but worsen relations with Black people (i.e. a group not readily sharing a common superordinate identity). Counter to expectations, allyship variables were not predicted by discrimination as a main effect or in interaction with outgroup identity. However, we found support for the mediating role of emotions in explaining the indirect effect of discrimination on allyship. For example, discrimination produced greater outgroup identification by elevating negative affect, but only when the outgroup was transgender people. Results for transgender and Black targets converged for outcomes requiring participants to consider societal injustice toward the outgroup. We observed only one effect for affirmation: It reduced LGB people's empathic anger for both transgender and Black people. Results may inform efforts of coalition building.

基于污名的同理心可以达到多远？LGB 人群的社会（不）公平对其与跨性别者和黑人的联盟的影响。

社会歧视和肯定的共同经历可以为不同边缘化群体成员之间的共情提供基础。然而，很少有人研究该过程中涉及的潜在机制和调节条件。该实验检验了自己群体的社会（不）公平感如何影响一个人对其他边缘化群体的反应。我们将 310 名顺性白人女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋 (LGB) 成年人随机分配到 LGB (in) 公平显着性（歧视、肯定、控制）和目标外群体身份（跨性别、黑人）不同的条件。参与者完成了一项评估与外群体相关的想法、感受和行为的调查，即盟友的指标。基于新兴的基于污名的团结理论，我们预计 LGB 歧视会改善与跨性别者的群体间关系（即一个群体很容易与 LGB 人分享共同的上级身份），但会恶化与黑人的关系（即一个群体不容易分享共同的上级身份）。与预期相反，盟友变量不是通过歧视作为主要影响或与外群体身份的相互作用来预测的。然而，我们发现支持情绪在解释歧视对盟友的间接影响方面的中介作用。例如，歧视通过提升负面影响产生了更大的外群体认同，但仅限于外群体是跨性别者。跨性别和黑人目标的结果趋于一致，要求参与者考虑对外群体的社会不公正。我们只观察到一种肯定效果：它减少了 LGB 人群对跨性别者和黑人的移情愤怒。结果可能会为建立联盟的努力提供信息。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
