亲密伴侣暴力是一个严重而普遍的社会问题，对幸存者的福祉造成有害后果。目前的研究涉及采访160名幸存者6倍，超过2年，以检查社会支持的作用，解释或缓冲这些负面的心理后果。作者研究了人与人之间和人与人之间的差异，以探索女性在虐待、社会支持、抑郁和生活质量（QOL）方面的轨迹。研究结果揭示了社会支持对妇女福祉的复杂作用。证据被发现的主要，中介和调节作用的社会支持对妇女的福祉。第一，社会支持与生活质量呈正相关，与抑郁呈负相关。社会支持也部分解释了基线水平和随后的身体虐待对生活质量和抑郁的影响，部分介导的心理虐待的变化的影响，并缓和虐待对生活质量的影响。社会支持的缓冲作用在较低程度的虐待中最强。未来的研究和干预的影响进行了讨论。
Intimate partner violence is a serious and pervasive social problem with deleterious consequences for survivors' well-being. The current study involved interviewing 160 survivors 6 times over 2 years to examine the role of social support in explaining or buffering these negative psychological consequences. The authors examined both between- and within-persons variability to explore women's trajectories regarding their experiences of abuse, social support, depression, and quality of life (QOL). Findings revealed the complex role of social support on women's well-being. Evidence was found for main, mediating, and moderating effects of social support on women's well-being. First, social support was positively related to QOL and negatively related to depression. Social support also partially explained the effect of baseline level and subsequent change in physical abuse on QOL and depression over time, partially mediated the effects of change in psychological abuse, and moderated the impact of abuse on QOL. The buffering effects of social support were strongest at lower levels of abuse. Implications for future research and intervention are discussed.
