Introduction: We were interested in building on previous studies showing the promotive and buffering roles of social support for emerging adults. We tested the associations of multiple domains of social support (i.e., family, friends) with measures of adjustment and adversity. Methods: Across four studies, U.S. college adults reported on domains of social support (family, friends, significant other), psychological adjustment (i.e., life satisfaction, flourishing), and psychological adversity (i.e., recent stress, depressive symptoms). Studies 1 and 4 were cross-sectional, whereas Studies 2 and 3 involved two, monthly survey reports. Study 4 was completed against the backdrop of early COVID-19 disruptions for college adults in the Spring of 2020. Results: In each study, each domain of social support was positively correlated with measures of adjustment and negatively correlated with measures of adversity. Partial correlations indicated that support from friends was incrementally associated with nearly every outcome, whereas support from family was incrementally associated with a majority of outcomes. Multiphase studies supported unidirectional, but not bidirectional, effects from earlier adjustment onto later social support. Discussion: Overall, findings reinforce the importance of social support for young adults and highlight the distinct importance of family and friends. Findings also suggest that a lack of perceived social support may contribute to risks fitting views such as the stress generation theory among emerging adults.

大学生的社会支持与心理适应

简介:我们有兴趣在以前的研究基础上建立社会支持对新兴成年人的促进和缓冲作用。我们通过调整和逆境的测量测试了多个社会支持领域(即家庭、朋友)的关联。方法:在四项研究中,美国大学生报告了社会支持(家庭、朋友、重要他人)、心理调整(即生活满意度、繁荣)和心理逆境(即最近的压力、抑郁症状)等领域。研究 1 和 4 是横断面的,而研究 2 和 3 涉及两个月度调查报告。研究 4 是在 2020 年春季大学生 COVID-19 早期中断的背景下完成的。结果:在每项研究中,社会支持的每个领域都与调整措施呈正相关,与逆境措施呈负相关。部分相关性表明,朋友的支持与几乎所有结果都呈递增相关,而家人的支持与大多数结果呈递增相关。多阶段研究支持从早期调整到后期社会支持的单向效应,但不是双向效应。讨论:总体而言,研究结果强调了社会支持对年轻人的重要性,并强调了家人和朋友的独特重要性。研究结果还表明,缺乏感知到的社会支持可能会导致风险适合新兴成年人的压力产生理论等观点。部分相关性表明,朋友的支持与几乎所有结果都呈递增相关,而家人的支持与大多数结果呈递增相关。多阶段研究支持从早期调整到后期社会支持的单向效应,但不是双向效应。讨论:总体而言,研究结果强调了社会支持对年轻人的重要性,并强调了家人和朋友的独特重要性。研究结果还表明,缺乏感知到的社会支持可能会导致风险适合新兴成年人的压力产生理论等观点。部分相关性表明,朋友的支持与几乎所有结果都呈递增相关,而家人的支持与大多数结果呈递增相关。多阶段研究支持从早期调整到后期社会支持的单向效应,但不是双向效应。讨论:总体而言,研究结果强调了社会支持对年轻人的重要性,并强调了家人和朋友的独特重要性。研究结果还表明,缺乏感知到的社会支持可能会导致风险适合新兴成年人的压力产生理论等观点。但不是双向的,早期调整对后期社会支持的影响。讨论:总体而言,研究结果强调了社会支持对年轻人的重要性,并强调了家人和朋友的独特重要性。研究结果还表明,缺乏感知到的社会支持可能会导致风险适合新兴成年人的压力产生理论等观点。但不是双向的,早期调整对后期社会支持的影响。讨论:总体而言,研究结果强调了社会支持对年轻人的重要性,并强调了家人和朋友的独特重要性。研究结果还表明,缺乏感知到的社会支持可能会导致风险适合新兴成年人的压力产生理论等观点。
