本研究探讨社会支持的主客观测量与严重精神疾病康复的关系；恢复被描述为一种结果状态和一个持续的过程。176名严重精神疾病患者完成了康复评估量表。一种康复的过程测量，除其他因素外，评估个人信心、目标导向和不受症状支配。他们还接受了简短精神病评定量表，这是一种半结构化的访谈，用于评估精神症状并代表康复的结果。最后，研究参与者完成了社会网络量表，该量表评估了整个网络的大小，以及家庭、朋友和健康专业人员等重要的子网络。社交网络还提供了对感知满意度的测量。在他们的支持网络中的相互关系和对个人的义务。结果显示，总体网络规模较大和网络满意度较高的人可能在恢复评估量表上报告更高的因素。在大多数情况下，网络规模和满意度与精神症状没有显著相关性。这些发现对更好地理解社会支持与康复之间的关系的意义进行了讨论。
This study examines the relationship between objective and subjective measures of social support with recovery from serious mental illness; recovery has been described as both an outcome state and an ongoing process. One hundred and seventy six people with serious mental illness completed the Recovery Assessment Scale.. a process measure of recovery that assessed, among other factors, personal confidence, goal orientation, and non-domination by symptoms. They also were administered the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale, a semi-structured interview that assesses psychiatric symptom and represents recovery as an outcome. Finally, research participants completed the Social Network Scale, which assessed size of the overall network plus such important subnetworks as family, friends, and health professionals. The SNS also provided measures of the perceived satisfaction with. mutuality in, and obligation towards individuals in their support network. Results showed people with larger overall network size and more network satisfaction were likely to report, higher factors on the Recovery Assessment Scale. For the most part, network size and satisfaction was not significantly associated with psychiatric symptoms. Implications of these findings for better understanding the association between social support and recovery are discussed.
