社会支持可以从几个不同的维度来考虑。虽然一般的社会支持可以促进福祉，但特定的社会支持与特定的功能相关，例如饮酒。不仅社会支持的形式可能有所不同，而且来源也可能有所不同（即朋友与家人）。本研究调查了家人与朋友对饮酒的一般和具体支持对 897 名禁欲的公共生活环境（牛津住宅）的美国居民饮酒的影响。结果表明，朋友的普遍支持和在牛津之家的停留时间显着预测饮酒量的减少。讨论了酒精回收的影响。
Social support may be considered from several different dimensions. While general social support promotes well-being, specific social support is tied to particular functions, such as alcohol use. Not only may the form of social support vary, but also the source (ie, friends vs. family). This study investigated the impact of general and specific support for alcohol use from familly versus friends on alcohol use among 897 U.S. residents of abstinent communal-living settings (Oxford Houses). Results indicated that general support from friends and length of stay in Oxford House significantly predicted less alcohol use. Implications for alcohol recovery are discussed.
