摘要

目的：本研究旨在探讨美国退伍军人感知到的社会支持随着时间的推移会发生怎样的变化，以及社会支持与其心理健康之间的纵向关系：分析了 2021-2023 年 783 名低收入美国退伍军人的全国代表性样本数据，以研究四种不同类型的社会支持（情感/信息支持、有形支持、亲情支持和积极社会互动）在一年内的变化和相关性。研究采用了加权逻辑混合模型：大多数退伍军人表示，他们感知到的社会支持水平没有变化，但约 18%-26% 的退伍军人表示，他们感知到的四种社会支持之一的水平有所上升或下降（上升/下降的比例基本持平）。四种社会支持的高水平与已婚和抑郁症筛查呈阳性的可能性较低有关。在社会人口特征和某些类型的社会支持之间还发现了其他不同的关联：这些研究结果证实了对社会经济地位较低、可能有心理健康问题的退伍军人进行社会支持感知评估的价值。

Longitudinal change and association between four types of social support and mental health among low-income U.S. veterans.

Aims: This study sought to examine how perceived social support changes over time for U.S. veterans and how social support relates to their mental health longitudinally.

Methods: Data from a nationally representative sample of 783 low-income U.S. veterans in 2021-2023 were analyzed to examine changes and correlates of four different types of social support (Emotional/Informational Support, Tangible Support, Affectionate Support and Positive Social Interaction) over 1 year. Weighted logistic mixed models were conducted.

Results: The majority of veterans reported no change in their level of perceived social support, but about 18%-26% reported either an increase or decrease (about evenly split about increase/decrease) in their perceived level of one of the four types of social support. High levels of the four types of social support were associated with being married and a lower likelihood of screening positive for depression. Other differential associations were found between sociodemographic characteristics and some types of social support.

Conclusion: These findings confirm the value of assessing perceived social support among veterans with low socioeconomic status who may have mental health issues.

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Social Psychiatry, established in 1954, is a leading publication dedicated to the field of social psychiatry. It serves as a platform for the exchange of research findings and discussions on the influence of social, environmental, and cultural factors on mental health and well-being. The journal is particularly relevant to psychiatrists and multidisciplinary professionals globally who are interested in understanding the broader context of psychiatric disorders and their impact on individuals and communities. Social psychiatry, as a discipline, focuses on the origins and outcomes of mental health issues within a social framework, recognizing the interplay between societal structures and individual mental health. The journal draws connections with related fields such as social anthropology, cultural psychiatry, and sociology, and is influenced by the latest developments in these areas. The journal also places a special emphasis on fast-track publication for brief communications, ensuring that timely and significant research can be disseminated quickly. Additionally, it strives to reflect its international readership by publishing state-of-the-art reviews from various regions around the world, showcasing the diverse practices and perspectives within the psychiatric disciplines. This approach not only contributes to the scientific understanding of social psychiatry but also supports the global exchange of knowledge and best practices in mental health care.
