摘要

导言：尽管越来越多的证据表明，被称为社会痛苦最小化（SPM）的情绪无效会导致歧视对心理健康和自杀产生负面影响（Benbow 等人，2022 年；Kinkel-Ram 等人，2021 年），但目前还不清楚社会支持的哪些因素会导致 SPM。SPM 是否与社会支持的数量（如支持提供者的数量和人们寻求支持的频率）有关？或者，社会支持的质量（例如，主动与被动的破坏性反应以及受到威胁的支持需求）对 SPM 是否最为重要？这项研究解决了这些问题，并提供证据表明，支持的质量而非数量会影响 SPM 的感受，并说明 SPM 在歧视与心理健康关系中的中介作用。研究方法232名黑人参与者（42.9%为女性；平均年龄=34.86岁，最小年龄=11.15岁）采用横截面相关设计，完成了对日常歧视、社会支持数量和质量、SPM和心理健康的测量。结果显示在双变量水平上，支持质量指标（而非数量指标）可预测 SPM 和心理健康。然而，当这些支持质量指标同时进入多元回归时，只有被动破坏性（PD）待遇和价值提供分别对 SPM 有正向和负向的预测作用。串行平行中介分析进一步表明，被动破坏性待遇和自我价值威胁在歧视与心理健康之间的关联中起到了中介作用。讨论研究结果表明，是支持的质量而不是数量为 SPM 创造了条件。尽管支持质量的许多维度都与 SPM 有关，但 PD 治疗和自我价值威胁与最小化的独特关系最为密切。此外，在歧视与心理健康之间的联系中，这些支持维度对 SPM 起着中介作用。在歧视发生后，PD 反应和自我价值受到威胁增加了 SPM，进而损害了心理健康。

Quantity and quality: Dimensions and provisions of social support inform the role of social pain minimization in the discrimination-to-mental health relation among Black Americans

Introduction: Despite growing evidence that emotion invalidation, termed social pain minimization (SPM), contributes to discrimination's negative effect on mental health and suicidality (Benbow et al., 2022; Kinkel-Ram et al., 2021), it is unclear what elements of social support give rise to SPM. Is SPM related to social support quantity (e.g., the number of support providers and frequency with which people seek support)? Or, is social support quality (e.g., active versus passive destructive responses and threatened support needs) most central to SPM? This work addresses these questions and provides evidence that support quality rather than quantity shapes feelings of SPM and informs SPM's mediating role in the discrimination-to-mental health relation. Methods: With a cross-sectional correlational design, 232 Black participants (42.9% female; Mage = 34.86, SDage = 11.15) completed measures of daily discrimination, social support quantity and quality, SPM, and mental health. Results: At a bivariate level, indices of support quality, but not quantity, predicted SPM and mental health. However, when these indices of support quality were entered simultaneously in multiple regression, only passive destructive (PD) treatment and provisions of worth positively and negatively predicted SPM, respectively. Serial parallel mediation analysis further revealed that PD treatment and threats to self-worth fueled SPM's mediating role in the association between discrimination and mental health. Discussion: The results suggest that support quality, not quantity, sets the stage for SPM. Although many dimensions of support quality related to SPM, PD treatment and threats to self-worth had the strongest unique relationships to minimization. Moreover, these support dimensions contributed to SPM's mediating role in the link between discrimination and mental health. In discrimination's wake, PD responses and threatened self-worth increased SPM, which then undermined mental health.

期刊介绍： This journal is devoted to the application of theory and research from social psychology toward the better understanding of human adaptation and adjustment, including both the alleviation of psychological problems and distress (e.g., psychopathology) and the enhancement of psychological well-being among the psychologically healthy. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) traditionally defined psychopathology (e.g., depression), common emotional and behavioral problems in living (e.g., conflicts in close relationships), the enhancement of subjective well-being, and the processes of psychological change in everyday life (e.g., self-regulation) and professional settings (e.g., psychotherapy and counseling). Articles reporting the results of theory-driven empirical research are given priority, but theoretical articles, review articles, clinical case studies, and essays on professional issues are also welcome. Articles describing the development of new scales (personality or otherwise) or the revision of existing scales are not appropriate for this journal.
