The benefit of full disclosure: A meta

Disclosure of sexual orientation in the workplace is a communication exchange wherein an individual reveals his/her sexual orientation to coworkers, to one extent or another. Although there have been a number of empirical studies on disclosure in the workplace, the literature has never been systematically reviewed. The current study meta-analyzed 24 primary studies in order to elucidate the relationship between workplace sexual orientation disclosure and individual, relational, and organizational correlates. Results indicated that disclosure is most strongly related to organizational climate, suggesting that the organization has a substantial impact on individual disclosure decisions
