Abstract:

Sociala medier och IT support, två områden som det ofta pratas om. Allt fler företag väljer att kombinera dessa två och låta sina kunder kontakta dem då de behöver IT support via sociala medier, detta fenomen kallas ’Social IT support’. Många människor, använder dagligen sociala medier dock är det oklart vad användare anser om att söka IT support via sociala medier. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur användaren ser på att söka IT support via sociala medier samt vid vilket tillfälle de hellre skulle använda sig av traditionell IT support så som telefon och e-post samt om användaren förräntar sig snabbare respons från företaget då de söker IT support via sociala medier. Undersökningarna som genomförts har syftat till att undersöka och granska vad verkliga individer tycker och tänker kring ämnet. Undersökningarna som genomfört har bestått av en strukturerad kvantitativ enkät med 102 respondenter samt en semi strukturerad kvalitativ intervju som har genomförts på fem individer. Resultatet som framkommit av undersökningen visar att majoriteten av respondenterna är positivt inställda till att prova på att söka IT support via sociala medier. Undersökningen visar också att det är de olika problemen som uppstår som påverkar om de väljer att söka IT support via sociala medier eller på det traditionella sättet. Resultatet visar även att de flesta respondenter förväntar sig snabbare kontakt från företaget då de sökt IT support via sociala medier än över telefon. Vilket är känt från tidigare forskning dock har skillnader från tidigare forskningar påträffats. Undersökningen visar även att män har högre förväntningar än kvinnor på hur lång tid det ska ta för ett företag att kontakta dem.

Abstract:

Many people with hoarding problems have never been married and live by themselves. Further, treatment-seekers tend to be elderly, which puts them at special risk for social isolation. Research has established strong links between social support and many aspects of psychological health, but the role of social support in hoarding has not yet been explored. Does excessive clutter drive away people who care? Does living alone provide freedom to accumulate clutter? How social support is provided and received is also relevant. Although family members or healthcare workers may intend to minimize health and safety risks associated with hoarding behaviour, actions they intend to be supportive may be delivered insensitively or inappropriately. Previous research has found that hoarding is a source of family burden and distress. As a result, hoarding may be related to interpersonal conflict. This study investigated (1) social integration, the degree to which someone is involved in a broad range of relationships, (2) perceived support, the amount of support perceived to be available if need arises, (3) received support, the amount of support perceived to have been obtained, and (4) social conflict, which broadly includes a range of negative social interactions. Seventy-eight participants with a range of hoarding symptoms were surveyed online. The relations among hoarding symptoms and four aspects of social support were examined. The effect of depression was considered, as it is highly comorbid with hoarding and may account for some aspects of poor social support. Hoarding was related to perceived support and social conflict, but this relationship was explained by depression. In contrast, hoarding was not related to social integration or received support. This study provides a basis for further research on social interactions in hoarding, and demonstrates the necessity in building sensitivity and awareness beyond media portrayals of hoarding, such that supportive behaviours are delivered in a thoughtful manner that minimizes conflict. Additionally, this study has implications for encouraging social integration and addressing issues of social support and conflict within hoarding interventions.

Abstract:

Patients receiving dialysis treatment experience immense changes in their health and well-being, therefore receiving adequate social support services is an integral aspect of their care plan. Thus, the purpose of this study was to gain an understanding about social support services offered by social workers to patients receiving dialysis care. Furthermore, this study sought to develop awareness about additional services need to assist social workers in providing social, emotional, and physical support to patients. This qualitative study used data from a non-probability snowball sample of 10 social workers that work with patients receiving dialysis care. Findings of this study are significant to social work practice as the analysis provided insight that may enhance current practices in dialysis centers. Furthermore, the qualitative analyses gathered through the one-on-one interviews led to the emergence of seven central themes. Themes anticipated by the researchers included the perception about the ability to provide social, emotional, and physical support, as well as to highlight the role of social workers in this healthcare setting. Additional themes identified during this study focused on reasons for patients lacking social support, the scarcity of resources, and recommendations corroborated with first-hand experiences in the field to better serve patients. Recommendations included increased focus on providing therapeutic services within dialysis, additional transportation options for patients, and greater availability of resources to meet the various needs of patients.

Abstract:

This thesis examined the influence of support type and support visibility on the effects of enacted social support on performance and a number of key psychological and behavioural variables. It comprises five chapters. Chapter 1 is a general introduction. The next three chapters (outlined below) present the results of four studies. Chapter 5 is a general discussion. Chapter 2 examined how support type and support visibility influenced the effects of natural support exchanges between athletes and their key support providers occurring in the week prior to an athlete’s match. Athletes and key support providers reported respectively the receipt and provision of support during this week. Athletes also indicated their self-confidence and emotional states regarding the upcoming the match. Moderated hierarchical regression analyses revealed that all types of received support predicted athletes’ emotional states and self-confidence regarding the upcoming match. There was no evidence that invisibly providing these support types predicted athletes’ outcomes. For informational support, however, it was found that its provision predicted self-confidence, suggesting that athletes’ levels of confidence may have benefited from advice that they were not always aware of. Chapter 3 employed an experimental paradigm to better examine the influence of the type and visibility of enacted social support. Using a golf-putting task with novices (n = 105), it examined the influence of informational and esteem support provided in a visible or invisible manner by a fellow novice golfer. This fellow novice golfer was in reality a confederate scripted to give one of five support manipulations (visible informational support, invisible informational support, visible esteem support, invisible esteem support, no support) to participants prior to performing the golf-putting task. The results demonstrated that participants given invisible informational support or visible esteem support outperformed those given no support, while participants given visible informational support or invisible esteem support did not. There was no evidence that participants’ self-efficacy or emotional states could explain these effects. Chapter 4 also involved experimental procedures across two separate studies with samples of skilled football players completing a football aiming task. In these studies, esteem and informational support was provided in a visible or invisible manner by a coach with expertise in penalty-taking. In the first of these studies, the players (n = 68) performed better when the expert provided them with informational support than when the expert provided them with esteem support. This effect occurred regardless of whether the support was provided in a visible or invisible manner. Self-efficacy could not explain this effect. Given the lack of effects of support visibility, the second of these two studies was designed as a replication and an extension of the first. It sought to further examine why informational support might be more effective than esteem support for skilled football players (n = 84). Consistent with the first study, kicking performance was again significantly better for players provided with informational support than for players provided with esteem support regardless of whether the support was provided in a visible or invisible manner. There was evidence that players given informational support performed better than those given esteem support, because their attention was focused more externally on the target and less internally on the process of movement execution. This series of studies are important for sport and social psychology: They are the first to explore the effect of support type and support visibility in a sport context; and they are the first to examine the effect of support type and support visibility in relation to performance. The results demonstrate that support type is a crucial factor to consider when exchanging support. However, no support type may necessarily be considered the best under all conditions. In light of explaining the effects of different support types on performance, the final study suggests that attentional focus may be an important underlying mechanism. The results indicate that support visibility may play a role in the exchange of support but its influence depends on the type of support provided and the context in which this type of support is provided. An overriding finding of this thesis is that enacted support can have beneficial effects upon athletes’ psychological states and performance.

Abstract:

Whilst transient dissociative states are commonplace in the face of overwhelming traumatic events, long-standing dissociative phenomena are also frequently reported in adults who have childhood histories of severe sexual or physical abuse. Dissociation itself may take a number of forms, including isolation, adsorption, fragmentation and memory disturbance: the relative importance of environmental and personality variables in determining an individual's "style" of dissociation is unclear, although there is good evidence for a cumulative effect, such that dissociation in the face of trauma is most frequent in individuals who have also suffered childhood abuse. Bowlby's attachment theory may help to explain the relationship between social support, dissociative phenomena and traumatic events in childhood and adulthood. Attachment theory is a theory of affect regulation which proposes that individuals make use of social and cognitive strategies in their attempts to manage negative affect. These strategies are thought to be selected on the basis of an individual's childhood experiences with caregivers and are maintained through the operation of relatively stable "internal working models". Social support is widely cited as a protective factor mitigating against the development of psychopathology following exposure to trauma, but it is unclear whether social support directly protects against the effects of trauma, or whether both perceived social support and adaptation to trauma reflect underlying attachment patterns, as suggested by attachment theory. This thesis examines the relationship between attachment pattern and (i) tendency to experience particular dissociative states and (ii) use made of available social support. Two groups were recruited. These were (i) control subjects with no history of treatment for psychological problems, and (ii) out-patient psychology department attendees with a broad range of psychological problems. Measures of attachment, social support, dissociation, exposure to life events and mood were administered. The results are presented and discussed in light of current theories of attachment, social support and dissociation.

Abstract:

Background: The social consequences of having a stroke can be severe, with social isolation a reported problem. It is little explored, however, what factors predict who will feel well supported and retain a strong social network after a stroke, nor is it well understood why friendships and other social contacts are lost. Aims: This thesis explored: 1) how social support and social network change over time following a stroke, and whether this is different for those with aphasia; 2) what factors predict perceived social support and social network six months post stroke; 3) why people lose contact with friends, and whether there are any protective factors; 4) how the changing dynamics within the family unit are perceived by the stroke survivor. Design and setting: Repeated measures cohort study. Participants were recruited from two acute stroke units and assessed at two weeks (baseline), three months and six months post stroke. A subset of participants was selected for in-depth qualitative interviews 8 – 15 months post stroke. Measures and methods: Stroke Social Network Scale; MOS Social Support Survey; General Health Questionnaire; National Institute of Health Stroke Scale; Frenchay Aphasia Screening Test; Frenchay Activities Index; and the Barthel Index. Multiple regression, ANOVA, correlation and t-tests were used as appropriate. Results: 87 participants were recruited of whom 71 were followed up at six months. At six months, 56% of participants were male, 16% had aphasia, and the average age was 69 years old. 29 participants took part in qualitative interviews. Perceived social support at six months was not significantly different from pre-morbid levels; social network, however, did significantly reduce (p = .001). Those with aphasia had comparable levels of perceived social support but significantly reduced social networks (p < .05) compared to those without aphasia. Concurrent predictors of perceived social support at six months were: a person’s social network, their marital status, and their level of psychological distress (adjusted R2 = .37). There was only one baseline predictor of social support at six months: perceived social support prior to the stroke (adjusted R2 = .43). Concurrent predictors of social network at six months were: perceived social support, ethnic background, aphasia and extended activities of daily living (adjusted R2 = .42). There were two baseline predictors: pre-morbid social network and aphasia (adjusted R2 = .60). There was a significant reduction in the Friends factor of the social network measure (p < .001). The main reasons for losing friends were: changing social desires especially a sense that many participants were ‘closing in’ on themselves; aphasia; loss of shared activities; reduced energy levels; physical disability; environmental barriers; and unhelpful responses of others. Family were generally robust members of the social network post stroke. The spouse was the main provider of all support functions. Nonetheless, beneath the apparent stability of the quantitative data there were changes in how family relationships functioned, including some distressing role shifts, for example, receiving rather than providing support. Conclusion: Contact with family and perceived social support remained stable post stroke. In contrast, a person’s social network, in particular contact with friends, was found to reduce, especially for those with aphasia. Indeed, aphasia was the only stroke-related factor at the time of the stroke that predicted social network six months later. Intervention aimed at addressing social isolation may be most effective if it takes into account the multiple reasons for friendship loss, including new language and physical disabilities, as well as changing social desires.

Abstract:

“Social movements” are by definition informal or semi-formal, as opposed to the formal structure of a stable association, such as a club, a corporation, or a political party. They are relatively long lasting over a period of weeks, months, or even years rather than flaring up for a few hours or a few days and then disappearing (Smelser et al., 2020). There is a substantial and growing body of work dedicated to social movements, encompassing a wide range of views about how to define them (Smelser et al., 2020). This is complicated by the use of other terms which shade into the idea of “social movements”, such as grass-roots mobilisation/ movements, non-traditional civil society organisations, voluntary organisations, civic space, new civic activism, active citizenship, to name a few. There is also an implied informality to the term “social movements”, so that the research for this rapid review used both “social movement” and “informal social movement”. Thus this rapid review seeks to find out what approaches do donors use to support “informal social movements” in their programming, and what evidence do they base their strategies on. The evidence found during the course of this rapid review was drawn from both the academic literature, and think-tank and donor reports. The academic literature found was extremely large and predominantly drawn from single case studies around the world, with few comparative studies. The literature on donor approaches found from both donors and think tanks was not consistently referenced to research evidence but tended to be based on interviews with experienced staff and recipients.

Abstract:

Much of Yemen’s population needs basic assistance to avoid famine. As well as providing food and cash-based support during a decade of war, international aid actors have sustained and strengthened the capacities of local organisations involved. Yet these efforts have overlooked some capacities – particularly valuable skills for community engagement and accountability, seen as vital for inclusion and conflict sensitivity. As conflict in Yemen continues and aid budgets come under further pressure, this Policy Briefing offers a series of recommendations to improve the effectiveness of donor and aid agency support for local capacities for social assistance.

Abstract:

This paper poses a different lens on informal social protection (ISP). ISP is generally understood as practices of livelihood support among individuals. While studies have explored the social dynamics of such, they rarely do so beyond the conceptual space of informalities and poverty. For instance, they discuss aspects of inclusion, incentives and disincentives, efficiency and adequacy. This provides important insights on whether and to what extent these practices provide livelihood support and for whom. However, doing so in part disregards the socio-political context within which support practices take place. This paper therefore introduces the lens of between-group inequality through the Black Tax narrative. It draws on unique mixed method data of 205 personal support networks of Namibian adults. The results show how understanding these practices beyond the lens of informal social protection can provide important insights on how economic inequality resonates in support relationships, which in turn can play a part in reproducing the inequalities to which they respond.
