压力源，资源和心理困扰之间的关系进行了研究，使用两波的数据从概率样本的无家可归者（N=430）居住在一个大的，人口统计学上不同的县在北加州。研究的重点是探讨社会资源和住房资源是否以及如何直接影响痛苦和调解压力因素对抑郁症状的影响。路径分析结果显示，心理困扰的水平是响应客观住房情况的变化，与实现的定居状态与较少的困扰症状。然而，我们的研究结果表明，只有适度的社会资源对心理困扰的直接影响和中介影响的生活压力对困扰。总体而言，研究表明，压力源，资源和痛苦的无家可归者之间的关系可以理解在同一分析框架内为一般人群。
Relations among stressors, resources, and psychological distress were examined using two waves of data obtained from a probability sample of homeless persons (N=430) residing in a large, demographically diverse county in North California. The focus of research was to examine whether and how social resources and housing resources directly affect distress and mediate the impact of stress factors on depressive symptoms. Path analysis results revealed that levels of psychological distress were responsive to change in objective housing circumstances, with the attainment of domicile status being associated with fewer distress symptoms. Our findings, however, indicated only modest effects of social resources on psychological distress through direct effects and mediating effects of life stressors on distress. Overall, the study suggests that the relationships among stressors, resources, and distress for homeless persons may be understood within the same analytical framework for the general population.
