Social support is widely believed to be an important buffer against stress in patients coping with cancer. Support efforts can, however, in turn prove to become a source of distress in themselves, both in patients and support providers. The present study was designed to explore the connections between support and emotional distress. N = 120 lung cancer patients and their relatives (n = 57) are interviewed at three intervals. Social support is assessed by multiple methods: Content analysis, a questionnaire and a confidant rating performed by experts. Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses are combined. Content-analytical and self-report data show a correlation of support efforts and emotional distress. In the confidant rating, however, the expected differences between supportive and non-supportive spousal relationships emerge. The results are discussed from an interactional point of view.
社会支持被广泛认为是癌症患者应对压力的重要缓冲。然而，支持行为反过来可能会成为患者和支持提供者自身痛苦的来源。本研究旨在探讨支持与情绪困扰之间的联系。对120名肺癌患者及其亲属（57名）进行了三次访谈。通过多种方法评估社会支持：内容分析、问卷调查以及由专家进行的知己评分。结合了横断面分析和纵向分析。内容分析和自我报告数据显示支持行为与情绪困扰之间存在关联。然而，在知己评分中，支持性和非支持性配偶关系之间出现了预期的差异。从互动的角度对结果进行了讨论。
