Abstract

Objectives: Black people seek racism-specific support (RSS)-social support in response to racism-from same-race (vs. cross-race) friends because they feel more understood by Black friends. The present study tested whether supportive and responsive (i.e., validating) RSS from Black or non-Black friends differentially influenced friendship dynamics and factors associated with Black support-seekers' psychological well-being (e.g., affect).

Method: Same-race (Black/Black; ndyad = 17) and cross-race (Black/non-Black; ndyad = 29) friendship dyads (Mage = 20.25, SD = 3.26) discussed an experience of racism. Both friends rated the supportiveness and responsiveness of RSS (or support) and completed pre- and postconversation measures (e.g., affect, emotional closeness).

Results: Supportive and responsive RSS predicted increased closeness between same- and cross-race friends. Responsive RSS predicted increased postconversation positive affect for Black support-seekers talking to same-race (vs. cross-race) friends. Exploratory analyses revealed support-providers also perceived support-seekers as providing responsiveness during exchanges.

Conclusions: Responsive and supportive RSS predicted positive cross-race friendship outcomes, and responsive RSS, especially among same-race friends, predicted improvement in Black support-seekers' affective reactions associated with psychological well-being. Moreover, the role of seeking and providing support might be dynamic, particularly when Black friends talk about racism with other friends of color.

积极响应:在同种族和跨种族友谊中,为黑人大学生提供针对种族主义的响应性支持的益处。
目标:黑人寻求同种族(与跨种族)朋友的种族主义特定支持(RSS)--针对种族主义的社会支持,因为他们觉得黑人朋友更理解他们。本研究测试了黑人或非黑人朋友提供的支持性和回应性(即验证性)RSS是否会对友谊动态以及与黑人寻求支持者的心理健康(如情感)相关的因素产生不同影响:同种族(黑人/黑人;ndyad = 17)和跨种族(黑人/非黑人;ndyad = 29)友谊组合(Mage = 20.25,SD = 3.26)讨论了种族主义经历。双方朋友对RSS(或支持)的支持性和响应性进行评分,并完成对话前后的测量(如情感、情感亲密度):支持性和响应性 RSS 预测同种族和跨种族朋友之间的亲密程度会增加。响应性 RSS 预测黑人寻求支持者与同种族(与跨种族)朋友交谈后的积极情感会增加。探索性分析表明,支持提供者也认为支持寻求者在交流过程中提供了响应:响应性和支持性 RSS 预测了跨种族友谊的积极结果,响应性 RSS,尤其是同种族朋友之间的响应性 RSS,预测了黑人支持寻求者与心理健康相关的情感反应的改善。此外,寻求和提供支持的作用可能是动态的,尤其是当黑人朋友与其他有色人种朋友谈论种族主义时。 (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)。
