We look at the effects of psychological disability on social networks and support of homeless and non-homeless individuals. We analyze a survey of 310 long-term users of client-run mental health agencies. Psychological disability is negatively associated with network characteristics for housed individuals, but not for the homeless. There is a positive relationship between psychological distress and network size for the homeless who receive SSI while homeless individuals who do not receive SSI show a negative, non-significant association. We suggest the financial resources of SSI enable network members to become expressively involved with homeless individuals with relatively more psychological disturbance.
我们研究了心理残疾对无家可归者和非无家可归者社交网络及支持的影响。我们分析了一项对310名长期使用由服务对象运营的心理健康机构的用户的调查。心理残疾与有住所者的网络特征呈负相关，但与无家可归者无关。对于无家可归且领取补充保障收入（SSI）的人来说，心理困扰与网络规模呈正相关，而未领取SSI的无家可归者则呈现出负相关但不显著的关联。我们认为，SSI的财政资源使网络成员能够更积极地参与到心理困扰相对较多的无家可归者之中。
