关于社会支持团体的益处的研究尚无定论。一个原因是干预反应的个体差异很少被研究。作者确定了个体差异变量在多大程度上缓和了以信息为基础的教育组和以情感为中心的同侪讨论组对乳腺癌妇女心理和身体功能的影响（n = 230）。作者在干预前后分别使用SF-36 （S. E. Ware， K. K. Snow， M. Kosinski, & B. Gandek, 1993）这一多维生活质量测量工具。与困难较少（如缺乏支持或个人资源较少）的妇女相比，在研究开始时困难较多的妇女的身体功能方面，教育小组显示出更大的好处。同伴讨论小组对缺乏伴侣或医生支持的女性有帮助，但对获得高度支持的女性有害。这些结果对临床干预的意义进行了讨论。
Research on the benefits of social support groups has been inconclusive. One reason is that individual differences in intervention responses have rarely been examined. The authors determined the extent to which individual difference variables moderated the effects of an information-based educational group and an emotion-focused peer discussion group on the mental and physical functioning of women with breast cancer (n = 230). The authors administered the SF-36 (S. E. Ware, K. K. Snow, M. Kosinski, & B. Gandek, 1993), a multidimensional quality of life instrument, pre and postintervention. Educational groups showed greater benefits on the physical functioning of women who started the study with more difficulties compared with less difficulties (e.g., lacked support or fewer personal resources). Peer discussion groups were helpful for women who lacked support from their partners or physicians but harmful for women who had high levels of support. Implications of these results for clinical interventions are discussed.
