随着人口老龄化和社会结构的变化，农村地区老年人的心理健康越来越重要。虽然社会支持满意度是生活质量的一个公认的预测因素，但人际敏感症状可能会削弱这种关系。本研究扩展了Scogin等人的研究结果，调查了农村老年人的人际敏感、社会支持满意度和生活质量之间的关系，并探讨了社会支持在人际敏感和生活质量之间的中介作用（N = 128）。分层回归分析显示，人际关系敏感度和社会支持满意度对生活质量有预测作用。此外，自我引导反应支持社会支持满意度在人际敏感症状和生活质量之间的中介作用。这些结果强调了护士和专职医疗服务提供者在评估和照顾客户的负面自我认知，以及他们的社交网络的感知质量的重要性。(C)2016 Elsevier Inc.

The mental health of elderly individuals in rural areas is increasingly relevant as populations age and social structures change. While social support satisfaction is a well-established predictor of quality of life, interpersonal sensitivity symptoms may diminish this relation. The current study extends the findings of Scogin et al by investigating the relationship among interpersonal sensitivity, social support satisfaction, and quality of life among rural older adults and exploring the mediating role of social support in the relation between interpersonal sensitivity and quality of life (N = 128). Hierarchical regression revealed that interpersonal sensitivity and social support satisfaction predicted quality of life. In addition, boot-strapping resampling supported the role of social support satisfaction as a mediator between interpersonal sensitivity symptoms and quality of life. These results underscore the importance of nurses and allied health providers in assessing and attending to negative self-perceptions of clients, as well as the perceived quality of their social networks.
