Feasibility of validating survey self‐reports of mental health service use
Survey respondents may inaccurately report mental health service utilization for motivational and cognitive reasons. There is little evidence on accuracy of self-reports of mental health service use, and this evidence suggests that respondents tend to underreport inpatient utilization. This study addressed the question of self-report accuracy by comparing survey data from a large probability sample to data from computerized records of publicly fu…
The relation of economic conditions, social support, and life events to depression
Evidence for a connection between recession and psychopathology has come from aggregate and individual-level studies. The aggregate studies cannot identify particular mechanisms (e.g., personally experienced life changes caused by the economy versus anticipation of stress on the basis of perceived community conditions versus the interaction of the two). Individual-level studies rarely control for earlier symptoms or, if they do, never include a m…
Where Do We Go from Here? The Policy Implications of Social Support
This article draws together the themes appearing in the articles included in the two numbers of the Journal of Social Issues devoted to social support. The social‐issue aspects of support are examined, several limitations of support interventions are discussed, and the advantages of a multicausal intervention approach are assessed. Finally, the implications for federal, state and local, and individual level health policies are presented

We define social support as “an exchange of resources between two individuals perceived by the provider or the recipient to be intended to enhance the well‐being of the recipient.” We then discuss the assumptions and implications of this definition and address several gaps in the support literature. Specifically, we consider the costs and benefits of supportive exchanges for both participants, the dual and possibly incongruent perceptions of supp…
