Experiences in gender–sexuality alliances (GSAs) could predict youth's academic engagement through improved social–emotional wellbeing (indicated by school belonging, hope, and positive and negative affect). This study utilized three waves of data, each spaced 2–3 months apart, among 627 youth (87% LGBQ+, 45% trans/nonbinary, 48% youth of color) ages 11–22 (Mage = 15.13) in 51 GSAs in the United States in 2021–2022. Greater peer responsiveness in the GSA predicted increased academic engagement through increased wellbeing overall and specifically through hope and decreased negative affect. Advisor responsiveness and GSA leadership correlated with wellbeing and academic engagement in bivariate analyses but were not predictive in the comprehensive model. GSA experiences were uncorrelated with academic disaffection. Findings suggest how GSAs promote youth's wellbeing and academic engagement.

青年在性别-性联盟中的经历可以预测学术参与，但不能通过社会-情感健康来预测不满


性别-性联盟 （GSA） 的经历可以通过改善社会-情感健康（由学校归属感、希望以及积极和消极的影响表示）来预测青少年的学业参与度。这项研究利用了三波数据，每波间隔 2-3 个月，涉及 2021-2022 年美国 51 个 GSA 的 627 名 11-22 岁青年（87% LGBQ+，45% 跨性别/非二元性别，48% 有色人种青年）（Mage = 2022）。GSA 中更高的同伴响应性预示着通过提高整体幸福感，特别是通过希望和减少负面影响来提高学术参与度。在双变量分析中，顾问响应性和 GSA 领导力与幸福感和学术参与度相关，但在综合模型中不具有预测性。GSA 经历与学术不满无关。研究结果表明 GSA 如何促进青少年的福祉和学术参与。
