两个探索性研究报告，试图找出社交网络的重要心理维度。这两项研究都调查了大学生的社交网络，研究对象都是同样的16名男生和16名女生。第一项研究采用多元回归生成预测变量，以学生对其社交网络的满意度评级。第二项研究评估了在环境引起的压力期间，结构上截然不同的社交网络如何作为自然支持系统发挥作用（期末考试）。第一项研究的结果表明，多维关系是社会网络满意度的重要来源。第二项研究的结果表明，社交网络可以为处于压力下的个人提供大量的支持。更紧密或更整合的社交网络提供了更多的支持，尽管不太令人满意的情感支持。讨论集中在描绘那些最能促进个人成长和增强压力下适应能力的社交网络。
Two exploratory studies are reported which sought to iden@ important psychological dimensions of social networks. Both studies investigated the social networks of college students, using as subfects the same 16 male and 16 female students. The first study employed multiple regression to generate predictor variables to students' ratings of satisfaction with their social network. The second study assessed how structurally contrasting social networks might function as natural support systems during a period of environmentally induced stress (final examinations). Results from the first study suggest that multidimensional relationships are an important source of social network satisfaction. Results from the second study indicate that social networks can provide considerable quantities of support to individuals under stress. Denser or more integrated social networks furnished substantially greater quantities of support, though less satisfying emotional support. Discussion centers on delineating those social networks which best promote personal growth and enhance adaptation under stress.
