The first five dimensions are core dimensions, the latter two supporting dimensions.
The main aims of this study were to examine the frequency of contact and loneliness and the association between loneliness and the social support dimensions: attachment, social integration, reassurance of worth and opportunities for nurturance.
We also build on the initial review by extending moderator analysis to relationships between demand-control-support dimensions and job satisfaction and emotional exhaustion — the two most examined psychological outcomes in primary studies.
In order to better understand how to design mobile game environments that support dimensions of seamless learning, we analysed children and their knowledge-building practices while learning with HeartRun.
The identified subgroups were then compared on their reported levels of social support dimensions (Table 3).
Other social support dimensions did not reach the statistical significance level.
Gender turned out to be insignificant both alone and in combination with social support dimensions.
Again, among all support dimensions, the strongest relationship to quality of life was observed for tangible support.
Therefore, disturbed access to one social support dimension may be less detrimental for women because it may be more easily compensated by profiting from other remaining accessible social support dimensions.
We also aimed to explore the potential protective effect of different social support dimensions in relation to welfare dependence.
