The relationship between social support and depression was studied in 165 women caring for frail family members. The Arizona Social Support Interview Schedule (Barrera, Sandler, & Ramsay, 1981), which includes 4 dimensions of availability and use of resources and satisfaction with and need for support, was used to examine 7 categories of supportive activity. Depression was assessed according to Research Diagnostic Criteria (Spitzer, Endicott, & Robins, 1978) with the Schedule of Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia (Endicott & Spitzer, 1978). There were no differences in overall satisfaction with received support in comparisons of depressed and nondepressed caregivers. However, depressed caregivers (n = 87) reported a higher incidence of negative interactions with others. Both groups appeared to have equal access to social support, with nondepressed caregivers (n = 78) reporting significantly greater use of those resources.
对165名照顾体弱家庭成员的女性的社会支持与抑郁之间的关系进行了研究。使用亚利桑那社会支持访谈量表（巴雷拉、桑德勒和拉姆齐，1981年）来考察7类支持性活动，该量表包括资源的可获得性与使用、对支持的满意度和需求这4个维度。根据研究诊断标准（斯皮策、恩迪科特和罗宾斯，1978年）以及情感障碍和精神分裂症量表（恩迪科特和斯皮策，1978年）对抑郁进行评估。在比较抑郁和非抑郁的照顾者时，他们对所获得支持的总体满意度没有差异。然而，抑郁的照顾者（n = 87）报告称与他人发生负面互动的发生率更高。两组获得社会支持的机会似乎均等，非抑郁的照顾者（n = 78）报告称对这些资源的使用明显更多。
