社会支持是一个多方面的概念，很难概念化，定义和衡量。尽管这个概念已经进行了广泛的研究，但理论家和研究人员就其理论和运营定义几乎没有共识。结果，这个概念仍然是模糊的，几乎所有侵入社会互动的东西都可以视为社会支持。社会支持研究人员一直忽略了概念的复杂性，并以简单的方式测量了变量。本文的目的是通过对社会支持的定义进行分类，探索概念的理论方面和概念化，提出社会支持模型并研究如何以当前的方式衡量社会支持，从而分析与社会支持有关的理论与研究之间的联系。社会支持研究（1993-1996）。讨论了当前的研究和未来研究方向的不足。
Social support is a multi-faceted concept that has been difficult to conceptualize, define and measure. Although this concept has been extensively studied, there is little agreement among theoreticians and researchers as to its theoretical and operational definition. As a result, the concept remains fuzzy and almost anything that infers a social interaction may be considered social support. Social support researchers have consistently ignored the complexity of the concept and have measured the variable in a simplistic manner. The purpose of this article is to analyse the linkage between theory and research related to social support by categorizing definitions of social support, exploring the theoretical aspects and conceptualizations of the concept, proposing models of social support, and examining how social support is measured in current social support research (1993-1996). The inadequacy of current research and directions for future study are discussed.
