The mobilization of social supports: Some individual constraints
Abstract
The effects of two dispositional variables, locus of control and help-seeking beliefs, as well as sociodemographic variables, on the mobilization of social supports were examined in this study. With a sample of 308 women users of a neighborhood health center, information was gathered regarding social support contacts following stressful events occurring within the previous year. Results confirmed the importance of the two dispositional variables, with internal locus of control and positive beliefs in the benefits of help-seeking each being associated with more support mobilization, independent of the number of potential supporters available. In addition, the educational level of the respondents showed a direct, positive relationship to support mobilization. Tests for interactions revealed several interactions between sociodemographic variables and the dispositional variables or potential support. These interactions generally showed that the dispositional variables and levels of potential support had a greater impact on support mobilization for persons with higher educational achievement, higher incomes, or coming from English-speaking (vs. Spanish-speaking) backgrounds. Results are discussed in relation to current research on social support and differential vulnerability of individuals to the effects of stress.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
