Abstract
The measurement of social support adopts the social support rating scale developed by Ye Yuemei et al(2008)., which consists of 17 items and is based on Xiao Shuiyuan’s(1987) three factor model of social support. It includes subjective support, objective support, and utilization of support. The subjective support scale has 5 items and measures the perceived social support material and spiritual resources of the respondents; The objective support scale consists of 6 items, measuring the various forms of assistance that the respondents have truly received. The support utilization scale consisting of 6 items measures active utilization of social resources by respondents. This study aims to investigate the reliability and exploratory factor analysis of the Social Support Rating Scale.
