人际沟通是生命的基本组成部分,也是健康的关键。家庭内部的互动对长期的健康尤为重要。家庭沟通是适应压力、应对和成功老龄化的核心手段。尽管如此,该学科中还不存在优先考虑健康中的亲属沟通的理论论据。理论上的进步可以加强改善家庭生活的干预措施和政策。本文探讨了社会情绪选择理论(SST),它强调了我们生存中的沟通。沟通伙伴的选择是基于一个人的时间观,这影响了我们的优先目标生存的目标寻求社会。这是SST在一项关于女性健康和老龄化的家庭沟通研究中的首次测试。300多名不同年龄和健康状况的妇女参加了会议。两个时间因素,成年后期和晚期乳腺癌,导致女性优先考虑家庭沟通。研究结果为在卫生改革中优先考虑家庭沟通问题提供了理论依据。
Interpersonal communication is a fundamental part of being and key to health. Interactions within family are especially critical to wellness across time. Family communication is a central means of adaptation to stress, coping, and successful aging. Still, no theoretical argument in the discipline exists that prioritizes kin communication in health. Theoretical advances can enhance interventions and policies that improve family life. This article explores socioemotional selectivity theory (SST), which highlights communication in our survival. Communication partner choice is based on one's time perspective, which affects our prioritization of goals to survive—goals sought socially. This is a first test of SST in a family communication study on women's health and aging. More than 300 women of varying ages and health status participated. Two time factors, later adulthood and late-stage breast cancer, lead women to prioritize family communication. Findings provide a theoretical basis for prioritizing family communication issues in health reform.
