“…For example, Quittner, Glueckauf, and Jackson (1990) found that social support mediated the relationship between childhood stressors and psychological wellbeing and did not moderate the effect. Similarly, Wahler Otis, and Leukefeld (2015) found that perceptions of negative social interactions mediated the relationship between learning problems on depressive symptoms.…”

The impact of stigma and discrimination against persons with mental illness is well documented. Less well researched are the interpersonal and intrapersonal mechanisms that mediate how acts of discrimination impact persons with mental illness, specifically social support. Past research has focused on the buffering, or moderating impact of perceived social support. We hypothesize that perceived social support is a psychological process, changed by interactions with the outside world, including stressful interactions. In this study, we explore perceived social support as a mediator between the impact of experienced discrimination and mental health. We also test the moderating hypotheses as a way to determine if past research on the role of perceived social support is a better model than the mediating model. We used data from a subset of the Canadian Community Health Survey-Mental Health. We tested the mediating role of perceived social support using the bootstrapped estimate of the 95% confidence interval of the indirect effect. We also tested the buffering hypothesis of perceived social support, using the product of the impact of decimation measure and perceived social support measure. The results suggest that perceived social support does mediate the relationship between the impact of experienced discrimination and mental health. The buffering hypothesis did not hold. Results suggest a new way to model the relationship of perceived social support, stigma, and mental health. Further, the results provide insights into the importance of intervening at the point of discrimination.

“…Likewise, women receiving government benefits have experienced a higher prevalence of IPV and IPV-related health issues (An & Choi, 2019; Yoshihama et al, 2006). Experiencing IPV may limit a woman's ability to comply with minimum work requirements mandated by the US federal government to receive the TANF program benefits (Booshehri et al, 2018; Gallagher, 2011; Spencer et al, 2020; Wahler et al, 2015). Hsu (2017) examined the association between the timing of TANF transfer payments and reporting IPV to the police across 21 states in the US.…”

Multilevel risk factors may increase the risk of experiencing intimate partner violence among women. The overall goal of this study was to provide a comprehensive view of factors that may be associated with three forms of intimate partner violence. The primary aim was to explore associations between understudied factors and women's experiences of physical and sexual violence and stalking by an intimate partner. Secondary analysis of existing health registry data was conducted. Our evidence-driven strategy was based on a multipronged analytical approach informed by existing literature and the social–ecological model. We created an evidence-based hierarchical list comprised of three tiers. Three separate multiple logistic regression analyses were performed. Several shared risk factors were retained across all three forms including low levels of formal education, past experiences of non- partner sexual violence, residential instability, presence of children, experiences of a traumatic event and panic attacks, status of receiving US government benefits, and barriers to healthcare access. Results contribute to future research on intimate partner violence prevention by providing preliminary evidence of emerging factors associated with experiencing three forms of intimate partner violence.
