意外怀孕构成了潜在的耻辱时刻，动员了多个人？S网络成员对几种类型支持的渴望。这项研究调查了人们在应对意外怀孕时渴望、期望和获得的支持之间的差距。人们经历的支持差距会影响他们对怀孕的感觉，以及他们对围绕怀孕的耻辱的看法。最近经历了意外怀孕的人(N=203)在一项在线调查中报告了他们在意外怀孕时从恋人、母亲/母亲和密友那里获得的支持性沟通。人们在想要、期望和得到的支持数量之间存在差距，差距的性质因提供者和正在考虑的支持类型而异。男性和女性感觉到不同的差距，这取决于他们在意外怀孕中扮演的角色。人们所经历的差距有助于他们对怀孕周围的耻辱和影响改善的看法。
Unintended pregnancies constitute potentially stigmatizing moments that mobilize desires for several types of support from multiple members of people?s networks. This study examines gaps among the support people desire, expect, and receive when coping with an unintended pregnancy. The support gaps people experience can influence their feelings about the pregnancy and their perceptions of stigma surrounding it. People (N?=?203) who recently experienced an unintended pregnancy reported in an online survey the supportive communication they experienced from their romantic partner, mother/maternal figure, and close friend at the time of the unintended pregnancy. People experienced gaps among the amounts of support they desired, expected, and received, and the nature of gaps varied by the provider and type of support under consideration. Males and females perceived different gaps that varied according to their roles associated with an unintended pregnancy. The gaps people experienced contributed to their perceptions of stigma and affect improvement surrounding the pregnancy.
