“…The presence of social supportive relations before, during or after exposure to traumatic events has been identified as a consistent protective factor against developing and maintaining posttraumatic stress disorders PTSD (Brewin, Andrews & Valentine, 2004;Schnurr, Lunney & Sengupta, 2004). Such protective effects of social support have also been shown in relation to less pervasive stressors, such as daily hassles (Cohen & Wills, 1985;Sirin, Gupta, Ryce, Katsiaficas, Su arez-Orozco & Rogers-Sirin, 2013;Ystgaard, 1999).…”

“…In a school context CALD youth may receive social support from parents, peers, extended family, and school professionals such as teachers and school counsellors. Research on social support indicates that it predicts better social adjustment, lower levels of psychological stress, and fewer depressive symptoms (Crockett et al, ; Shochet, Dadds, Ham, & Montague, ; Shochet & Smith, ; Sirin et al, ).

“…Social support has also been frequently linked with both cognitive (Pinquart & Sörensen, 2000;Young, 2006) and affective (Diener, Sandvik, & Pavot, 1991) measures of well-being, and has been found to mediate the effects of other variables, such as social network size and personality traits, on well-being (Zhu, Woo, Porter, & Brzezinski, 2013). Also in the context of acculturation, supportive relationships with both ethnic ingroup members and host nationals have been found to foster psychological well-being, even in the face of adversity, such as ethnic discrimination , Jasinskaja-Lahti, Liebkind, Jaakkola, & Reuter, 2006, Sirin et al, 2013. We expected social support to be positively associated with both Life Satisfaction and Self-Esteem.…”
