A correlational design was used to test the formulation with 103 families who have children with diabetes mellitus. Underlying theoretical constructs include social support social norms and social networks.
The stress and coping perspective proposes that support contributes to health by protecting people from the adverse effects of stress.
Social support theoretical framework. The theoretical framework is the structure that can hold or support a theory of a research study. The theoretical framework introduces and describes the theory that explains why the research problem under study exists. Social support theory emerged from publications by Don DrennonGala and Francis Cullen both of whom drew on insights from several theoretical traditions.
The theory is centered on the proposition that instrumental informational and emotional. This framework is applied to the conceptual analysis of social support measures used in a number of frequently cited empirical studies whose discrepant results are shown to derive from differences in the target area and specificity of the measures used. The authors present brief overviews of 3 theoretical perspectives on social support research.
1 the stress and coping perspective 2 the social constructionist perspective and 3 the relationship perspective. The stress and coping perspective proposes that support contributes to health by protecting people from the adverse effects of stress. Was not to develop a theory of social support but a taxonomy of research efforts that hopefully may lead to such a theory.
A conceptual framework for research on social support The development of this model was guided by the desire for an integrated frame of reference for the as- sessment of and research on social support which is. Social support Social support a network-based social phenomenon has become the focus of research attention in the last three decades. As shown by a search of the Social Sciences Citation Index.
Commonly used strategies at the interpersonal level include lay health advisors and social support programs. Underlying theoretical constructs include social support social norms and social networks. Intervention strategies at the organizational level include provider reminders and feedback and other systems changes.
The proposed mechanisms by which social support influences health typically fall into one of two theoretical frameworks. The buffering model which contends that support protects against the negative impacts of stressors and the direct effects model which holds that social support can also be beneficial in the absence of stressors. Supportive Non-Parental Adults SNPAs or non-parental adults who provide social support to youth are present in the lives of many adolescents.
Yet to date a guiding framework for organizing the existing literature on the provision of support provided by multiple types of SNPAS such as teachers natural mentors and extended family members as well as to inform future research efforts is lacking. Questions about what constitutes social support and how and why social support might benefit health and well-being have been the focus of discussion and debate for over 30 years. Theorists strive to define social support and as a result it has been conceptualised in multiple ways.
Social Support Social support is one of the important functions of social relationships. Social support is always intended by the sender to be helpful thus distinguishing it from intentional negative interactions such as angry criticism hassling undermining. Abstract This article describes the development and initial empirical testing of a theoretical formulation of social support family health and child health derived from Imogene Kings conceptual framework for nursing.
A correlational design was used to test the formulation with 103 families who have children with diabetes mellitus. The social networks social support conceptual model shows how supportive connections between people or other entities influence physical mental and social health. The model consists of 5 hypothesized relationships between social networks providing social support and health.
