Abstract

The aim of this paper is to give introductory information regarding social support. A brief literature review regarding social support was performed. Using the review, background information, definitions of social support, different aspects of social support, the relationship between social support and self-efficacy, social support models (i.e. main effect model, and stress buffering effect model) and the effect of social support on recipient and provider are explained. The literature indicated there are two dimensions of social support: structure social support and functional social support. Structural social support refers to existence, quantity, and density of social relationships, whereas functional social support refers to quality of social relationships and type and functionality of resources provided to recipient (Chronister, 2009). In addition to it, social support is divided into two categories: perceived versus received social support. Research shows that social support has positive effect on psychological well-being.

Özet

Bu makalenin amacı sosyal destek ile ilgili giriş niteliğinde bilgi vermektir. Sosyal destek ile ilgili çeşitli tanımlar, sosyal desteğin boyutları, algılanan sosyal desteğe karşın alınan sosyal destek, sosyal destek modelleri, sosyal destek ve öz yeterlilik arasındaki ilişki ve sosyal desteğin desteği alan ve sunan üzerindeki etkileri açıklanmıştır. Literatürde sosyal destek genelde iki boyutta incelenmiştir: yapısal sosyal destek ve fonksiyonel sosyal destek. Yapısal sosyal destek, sosyal ilişkilerin varlığını, miktarını ve yoğunluğunu ifade etmekte bunula beraber, fonksiyonel sosyal destek sosyal ilişkilerin kalitesini, ve sosyal destek alanlara sunulan kaynakların fonksiyonel olma durumlarını ve çeşitlerini incelemektedir Bunun sosyal destek, alınan ve algılanan sosyal destek olarak iki kısma ayrılmıştır. Sosyal destek ile ilgili araştırmalar sosyal destek stresin etkilerini azaltmakla beraber ruh sağlığı üzerinde olumlu etkiler oluşturmaktadır. Bunun yanında sosyal desteğin öz yeterliliğe ilişkin olumlu etkileri de literatürde belirtilen konulardan bir tanesidir. Sonuc olarak, sosyal destek zihinsel ve fiziksel sağlık üzerine potansiyel olumlu etkide bulunabilir. Bu makale sosyal destek ile ilgili giriş niteliğinde bilgi sahibi olmak isteyenler için bir araç olarak kullanılabilir.
