This study examined the relationship between social support and adherence among a population of low income women from three racial/ethnic groups (white, black, Latino) with abnormal Pap smears. Medical record reviews ascertained receipt of followup services (e.g., adherence behavior) and telephone or home interviews determined receipt of social support and status of other independent variables of interest for 498 women. The following aspects of social support were found to be related to adherence: receipt of any social support; receipt of informational, emotional and tangible support; specific content of the support; amount of support; satisfaction with support; and source of support. Reported need was not related to adherence behavior. Receipt of social support was more strongly related to adherence when the woman's emotional response to the notification of the abnormal Pap smear was greater; when acculturation was higher (among Latinas); and under certain attitude conditions. Level of knowledge of the results of the Pap smear was found to be an intervening variable between receipt of informational support and adherence. Age and knowledge of the purpose of the Pap smear were found to be directly related to adherence behavior, but not related to receipt of social support. The following variables did not play a role in the relationship between social support and adherence: education, the patient-provider relationship, length of residence, and having a regular source of medical care. Differences by race/ethnicity were identified in receipt of support, amount of support, need for support, source of support and satisfaction with support. In general, whites were found to receive the most social support, followed by Latinos and blacks. Adherence rates were highest for Latinas, followed by whites and blacks. These differences could not be explained by receipt of social support. Among blacks emotional support was most strongly related to adherence, while among Latinos tangible support was most strongly related to adherence. Racial/ethnic differences in education and possession of health insurance did not influence adherence behavior.Subjects--Topical Terms:
