虽然社会支持被认为可以增强二元关系中的亲密感，但最近的研究结果表明，接受支持会增加接受者的痛苦。作者在对夫妇进行了为期31天的大型日记研究后，调查了这些明显相反的发现，这些研究导致了主要的压力源。结果证实，每天接受支持与更大的亲密感和更大的负面情绪有关。然而，这些平均效应掩盖了实质性的异质性。特别是，那些在亲密关系上表现出更大收益的接受者往往在消极情绪上表现出更小的成本，反之亦然。自尊被认为是支持效应的可能调节因素，但它的作用仅在一小部分接受者中很明显。这些结果表明，二元支持过程的模型必须在个体间异质性中发挥核心作用。
Although social support is thought to boost feelings of closeness in dyadic relationships, recent findings have suggested that support receipt can increase distress in recipients. The authors investigated these apparently contrary findings in a large daily diary study of couples over 31 days leading up to a major stressor. Results confirm that daily support receipt was associated with greater feelings of closeness and greater negative mood. These average effects, however, masked substantial heterogeneity. In particular, those recipients showing greater benefits on closeness tended to show lesser cost on negative mood, and vice versa. Self-esteem was examined as a possible moderator of support effects, but its role was evident in only a subset of recipients. These results imply that models of dyadic support processes must accord a central role to between-individual heterogeneity.
