The impact of social support on comprehensive measures of results (clinical and functional) of the course of schizophrenia was studied, understood and evaluated as a multidimensional construct differentiating sources of support (family vs. nonfamily).
One hundred fifty-two patients diagnosed with schizophrenia were assessed with the Mannheim Interview on Social Support (MISS) and the Social Functioning Scale (SFS). The hypotheses were explored in a prospective longitudinal design, using a causal correlational analysis for their evaluation by applying structural equation models.
The only explanatory factor of social functioning was Nonfamily social support, while the only explanatory factor of clinical result measurements was Family social support, observing a clearly differentiated impact of the different sources of support on the schizophrenia result measurements. It was also found that while Family social support explained 6.8% of the variance in the clinical result measurements, Nonfamily social support explained 13.7% of the variance in social functioning.
The results confirmed the differential importance of social support variables (family vs. nonfamily) in the clinical and functional result measurements of people with schizophrenia.
研究社会支持对精神分裂症病程综合结果(临床和功能)的影响,并将其理解和评估为一个区分支持来源(家庭与非家庭)的多维结构。
对 152 名被诊断为精神分裂症的患者进行了曼海姆社会支持访谈(MISS)和社会功能量表(SFS)评估。采用因果相关分析,通过应用结构方程模型对假设进行评估,该设计为前瞻性纵向设计。
社会功能的唯一解释因素是非家庭社会支持,而临床结果测量的唯一解释因素是家庭社会支持,观察到不同支持来源对精神分裂症结果测量的影响明显不同。还发现,家庭社会支持解释了临床结果测量中 6.8%的方差,而非家庭社会支持解释了社会功能中 13.7%的方差。
结果证实了社会支持变量(家庭与非家庭)在精神分裂症患者的临床和功能结果测量中的不同重要性。
