摘要
The present article relied upon interpersonal theory (Sullivan, 1953), the interpersonal circumplex model (Leary, 1957), resource exchange theory (Foa & Foa, 1974), and the meta-constructs of agency and communion (Bakan, 1966; Wiggins. 1991) in the attempt to explicate a theoretical and measurement model of social support. The Support Actions Scale - Circumplex (SAS-C: Trobst, in press) provides a circumplex measure of social support whose psychometric characteristics are comparable to the best circumplexes repot ted In the literature. Empirical findings using this recent measure are summarized and interpreted with respect to an interpersonal theory perspective.
