What Counts as Effective Emotional Support ? Explorations of Individual and Situational Differences
نویسنده
چکیده
W hen feeling hurt, disappointed, or upset, virtually everyone would like to receive sensitive emotional support from caring others. But is what counts as sensitive emotional support like beauty—that is, in the eye of the beholder? Do people differ substantially in their views about the type of emotional support that makes them feel better, or do most people have similar ideas about what counts as helpful (and unhelpful) emotional support? This chapter contributes to answering this question by summarizing the results of three studies that explore how certain psychological and situational factors influence people’s responses to various emotional support strategies.
