“…Of the 13 articles, 6 explored parental stress as an outcome measure (Bannink et al, 2016; Ma et al, 2017; McCabe and McCabe, 2013; McNally and Mannan, 2013; Tilahun et al, 2016; Wang et al, 2017). In these studies, researchers found that parental stress was negatively related to parents’ perceived support from different informal sources such as family, friends, community members, and parents support group, with the authors suggesting that greater satisfaction with support was associated with less stress (Bannink et al, 2016; Ma et al, 2017; McCabe and McCabe, 2013; Wang et al, 2017). Parental stress had a strong negative correlation with support from immediate family members among these informal support sources.…”

“…Three studies explored the interconnections between life satisfaction and social support that consisted of physical, emotional, informational, and instrumental assistance that an individual received from their social network (Lu et al, 2015; McNally and Mannan, 2013; Wang et al, 2017). Among these three studies, two were quantitative and measured the mediating effect of social support on life satisfaction.…”

There is a growing interest in understanding the relationship between family support and family or child-related outcomes in high-income countries. However, this has received little attention in low- and middle-income countries. The purpose of this review was to explore the relationship between family support and family and child-related outcomes among families affected by disability in low- and middle-income countries. We conducted a scoping review of five databases using search terms related to ‘family’, ‘support’, ‘child’, and ‘disability’. A total of 13 articles met the inclusion criteria. Families of children with disabilities received most of their support from informal sources (e.g. immediate family members, friends, and parents support groups). Parental stress was most often evaluated as the family outcome and was negatively linked to emotional support and childcare assistance from immediate family members. Movement and mobility therapy offered by rehabilitation professionals was found to improve children’s walking patterns. Positive attitudes from community members were key facilitators to participation of children with disabilities in social activities. The review calls for urgent attention to research in low- and middle-income countries, particularly the extent of support families are receiving from government-led support systems.

“…Social support is associated with better quality of life and acts as a significant indicator of the subjective well-being among people with substance abuse disorder ( 36 ). Wang et al ( 37 ) found that the relationship between stress and life satisfaction can be mediated by support from family and friends, but not from a person's significant other. Stress is associated with life satisfaction by increasing the demand for social support.…”

This study investigated the potential mediating roles of resilience and social support in the relationship between stress and life satisfaction. A total of 426 individuals, who have substance use disorder, from the Shifosi and Dalianshan rehabilitation facilities in China participated in the study. They were tested using the Perceived Stress Scale, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale, and Satisfaction with Life Scale. Results showed that the serial multiple mediation of social support and resilience in the relationship between stress and life satisfaction was significant. Furthermore, the findings corroborate the important roles of perceived social support and resilience in alleviating stress. Finally, we discussed ways to enhance the life satisfaction for individuals who have substance use disorder and analyzed the limitations of this study.

“…Previous studies have revealed that demographic variables, such as gender, age, and education (e.g., Checa, Perales, & Espejo, 2018), and personal variables, such as self-esteem, optimism, and resilience (e.g., Chen et al, 2017), could strongly predict individuals life satisfaction. Individuals with higher levels of life satisfaction reported higher levels of self-esteem (Chen et al, 2017) and optimisms (Kapikiran, 2012), obtained lower levels of anxiety (Brailovskaia, Schönfeld, Kochetkov, & Margraf, 2018) and distress (Wang, Huang, & Kong, 2017), and received more social support from family and friends (Kong et al, 2015). Among these factors that affect life satisfaction, social anxiety is one of the examined variables for life satisfaction (Lu, Zhen, Li, Hong, & Ling, 2019).…”

This study examined the mediating effects of loneliness in the relationship between social anxiety and life satisfaction. Four hundred and forty two left‐behind children in rural China, who completed the Social Anxiety Subscale, UCLA Loneliness Scale, and Satisfaction with Life Scale, participated in the study. Results indicated that compared with both parent migration children, the scores of life satisfaction in the mother‐only and father‐only migration children were strongly higher, but did not differ across genders and ages. Additionally, social anxiety and loneliness negative predicted life satisfaction. More important, the mediation analysis revealed a partial mediating effect of loneliness in the links from social anxiety to life satisfaction. These findings call on more attention from the government and related sectors of society, and propose that loneliness improvement program may have a preventive function for promoting the life satisfaction among left‐behind children.
