“…The emotional and psychosocial challenges after SCI diagnosis are substantial, and affected individuals require social support most of the time. Research indicates that social support correlates positively with life satisfaction, adjustment, coping, physical and mental health (Tough et al, 2017) as well as relationship quality (Tramonti et al, 2015), whereas it correlates negatively with, for instance, depression (Agtarap et al, 2017).…”

Interpersonal relationships among women with spinal cord injury are limited due to numerous barriers. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of disability acceptance in terms of the quality of social relationships among women with spinal cord injury. Social relationship quality was conceptualised as a construct that included two indicators, namely strength of relationship and social support. Ninety (N=90) women with spinal cord injury completed the Strength of Interpersonal Relationships Questionnaire (Zbieg and Słowińska, 2015), Social Support Scale (Kmiecik-Baran, 1995), and Multidimensional Acceptance of Loss Scale (Byra, 2017). Such methodological tools as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis (Pearson’s correlation coefficients) and progressive stepwise regression analysis were used. The study showed that the most important value for the surveyed women was the time devoted to relationships. The most frequent kinds of received support were informational and emotional. In addition, the most common change in the perception of disability acceptance was the containment of its effects and a transformation from comparative value to asset value. A significant correlation between the included variables was observed. It is also well worth mentioning that the two subscales of disability acceptance entailed a predictive function in explaining social relationship quality; however, the two subscales explained a surprisingly low percentage of observed variance. It is reasonable to suggest other ways of explaining this phenomenon.

“…In older adults, depression predicted worsening support and greater negative encounters with others over a period of at least 2 years . In adult trauma patients, depression at the time of injury predicted worse support and social integration 12 months later .

Depression predicts longitudinal declines in social support among women with newly diagnosed breast cancer

et al. 2019

Objective Among breast cancer survivors, low social support is associated with adverse clinical and psychosocial outcomes. This study prospectively examined longitudinal trends in perceived social support in women with newly diagnosed breast cancer as a function of depression status prior to initiation of cancer treatment. Methods One hundred ten patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer and 59 age‐matched noncancer controls completed behavioral measures at four assessments: prior to treatment and at 1 month, 1 year, and 2 years post‐treatment. Participants reported their perceived tangible and emotional/informational support using the Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey and were categorized as “depressed” or “non‐depressed” based on the Brief Symptom Inventory‐18 (BSI‐18). Analyses first compared longitudinal trends in support between patients and controls and then examined differences in longitudinal trends as a function of depression status in patients only, controlling for key covariates. Results Both tangible and emotional/informational support decreased among breast cancer patients but increased or remained unchanged among noncancer controls across the assessments. Among patients, depressed individuals experienced a significant decline in both tangible (P = 0.004) and emotional/informational support (P = 0.013) between 1 month and 1 year post‐treatment, which remained unchanged between 1 year and 2 years post‐treatment. In contrast, nondepressed individuals had stable levels across all assessments. Depressed patients also had lower levels of both support types compared with nondepressed patients across all assessments. Conclusions Breast cancer patients with depressive symptomatology have an elevated risk for declines in perceived social support over time.

Social support and health-related quality of life among the oldest old — longitudinal evidence from the multicenter prospective AgeCoDe-AgeQualiDe study

Purpose The aim of this study was to examine the longitudinal within-association between social support and health-related quality of life among the oldest old. Methods Longitudinal data (follow-up waves 7 to 9) were used from the multicenter prospective cohort study “Needs, health service use, costs and health-related quality of life in a large sample of oldest-old primary care patients (85 +)” (AgeQualiDe). n = 648 individuals were included in the analytical sample. At FU wave 7, mean age was 88.8 years (SD: 2.9 years, from 85 to 99 years). Social support was quantified using the Lubben Social Network Scale (6-item version). Health-related quality of life was assessed using the EQ-5D-3L including problems in five health dimensions, and its visual analogue scale (EQ VAS). It was adjusted for several covariates in conditional logistic and linear fixed effects regressions. Results Intraindividual decreases in social support were associated with an increased likelihood of developing problems in ‘self-care’, ‘usual activities’, ‘pain/discomfort’ and ‘anxiety/depression’ (within individuals over time). In contrast, intraindividual changes in social support were not associated with intraindividual changes in the EQ VAS score. Conclusion Findings indicate a longitudinal intraindividual association between social support and problems, but only in some health dimensions. Further research in this area based on longitudinal studies among the oldest old (from different countries) is required.
