Best understood as a multi-faceted resource, perceived and received support appear to be distinct concepts. The current study examined how received and perceived social support may be associated with, and moderate, the impact of child behavior problems on parent stress. Method This study examined the stress-buffering effects of perceived and received support in a sample of 249 caregivers of individuals with autism. Results Both types of support were significantly associated with less reported stress, when the two support types were examined individually. When considered together in a single model, received support was not uniquely associated with stress. Neither kinds of social support moderated the association between a commonly known stressors and stress. Conclusions This was the first study involving parents of individuals with autism assessing the stress-buffering effects of social support using two types of support. Existing social support interventions typically focus on increasing received support as a mechanism for improving emotional well-being, and the current results suggest that perceived support may have a more robust and direct link.

Family hardiness, social support, and self-efficacy in mothers of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders / Jonathan A. WEISS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-11 (November 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 7-11 (November 2013) . - p.1310-1317 Titre : Family hardiness, social support, and self-efficacy in mothers of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jonathan A. WEISS, Auteur ; Suzanne ROBINSON, Auteur ; Stephanie FUNG, Auteur ; Ami TINT, Auteur ; Philip CHALMERS, Auteur ; Yona LUNSKY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1310-1317 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Family hardiness  Mothers  Social support  Self-efficacy  Autism Spectrum Disorders  Stress Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Family hardiness is an important construct to understand coping in parents of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), who are often at risk for considerable distress in the face of multiple stressors. The current study examined family hardiness, perceived social support and parent self-efficacy as predictors of family distress in 138 mothers of individuals with ASD, 4–41 years of age. Using a multiple mediation analysis, we demonstrated that perceived self-efficacy and social support mediated the link between the pile-up of stressors and family hardiness, and that hardiness was a partial mediator in explaining how stressors were associated with family distress. Researchers and clinicians should consider the role that perceived social support and parent self-efficacy play in explaining family hardiness, and how the perception of such hardiness is associated with less distress.
