Research examining the relationship between social support and psychological well-being has largely ignored the negative side of social interactions. However, empirical evidence suggests that negative interactions can potentially be more harmful than social support is helpful. This article critically reviews the literature investigating the relationship between social support and negative social interactions and their simultaneous effect on psychological well-being. A review of 28 studies revealed that there are conceptual, theoretical, and methodological limitations associated with this body of research. In order to unravel some of these limitations, studies are grouped according to three conceptual models: the additive effects model, the moderator model, and the domain-specific model. Finally, the article discusses directions social work practice research should take to tackle and fully appreciate the complexities of the relationship between social support and psychological well-being.
研究社会支持与心理健康之间关系的研究在很大程度上忽视了社会互动的负面因素。然而,实证证据表明,负面互动可能比社会支持的帮助更具危害性。本文批判性地回顾了调查社会支持与负面社会互动之间关系及其对心理健康的同步影响的文献。对28项研究的综述表明,这一研究领域存在概念、理论和方法上的局限性。为了厘清其中一些局限性,研究根据三种概念模型进行了分组:累加效应模型、调节模型和特定领域模型。最后,本文讨论了社会工作实践研究应采取的方向,以应对并充分认识社会支持与心理健康之间关系的复杂性。
