1. In oduc ion
1.1. Social suppo is key in de e mining he psychological well-being and academic pe o mance o s uden s
I is usually ca ego ized in o h ee dimensions: emo ional, in o ma ional, and ins umen al. Emo ional suppo is he
exp ession o empa hy, encou agemen , and conce n om amily membe s, pee s, and eache s ha leads o eelings o

economic assis ance, lea ning ma e ial p o ision, and eaching assis ance [2]. Collec i ely, bo h suppo s unc ion as

example, high suppo ed s uden s show g ea e sel -e icacy, pe sis ence, and academic in ol emen [3]. Social suppo
no only inc eases s uden s' academic in es men bu also enhances hei abili y o make and pu sue educa ional goals.

O equal signi icance is he co ela ion be ween social suppo and psychological well-being, encompassing emo ional
s abili y, sel -es eem, and s ess managemen skills.
Highe le els o psychological well-being ha e been associa ed wi h mo e adap i e coping s yles, lowe anxie y, and

hypo hesis and a achmen heo y.
Based on he bu e ing hypo hesis, social suppo unc ions o bu e agains nega i e consequences o s ess, especially
in high-s ess se ings such as in schools [5]. A achmen heo y adds s eng h o his pe cep ion by highligh ing he

This esea ch aims o explo e he link be ween pe cei ed social suppo and s uden s' psychological well-being and

In pa icula , i aims o lea n how emo ional, in o ma ional, and ins umen al suppo a ec s uden s' coping wi h

3.1. Social Suppo and Psychological Well-being
To ou su p ise, he esea ch did no iden i y any link be ween o al social suppo and psychological well-being ( =
.112, p = .057). This esul is a odds wi h sizeable li e a u e poin ing owa d posi i e ela ionships be ween social

suppo among college s uden s was associa ed wi h men al heal h issues such as dep ession and anxie y.
Ou s udy's non-signi ican esul can be accoun ed o by se e al ac o s. One is ha , as posi ed by Cohen and Wills
(1985), social suppo migh be mo e aluable when he e is s ess h ough bu e ing e ec s a he han a ec ing well-

3.2. Social Suppo and Academic Achie emen
The s ong posi i e co ela ion be ween academic achie emen and social suppo ( =.186, p =.002) is consis en wi h
p e ious esea ch. Rosen eld e al. (2000) illus a ed ha pupils wi h high suppo om pa en s, eache s, and pee s
pe o med mo e academically han hose who had low suppo . Likewise, Malecki and Dema ay (2006) es ablished ha
pe cei ed eache social suppo was signi ican ly p edic i e o adolescen s' academic compe ence.
This connec ion is explained h ough mul iple mechanisms. Social suppo can possibly inc ease mo i a ion and
academic ask engagemen , as sugges ed by Wen zel.[17]. Fu he mo e, suppo i e ela ionships may assis s uden s in
lea ning e icien me hods o lea ning and equip hem wi h ools o mas e academic p oblems (Chen, 2005). The
compa a i ely low co ela ion in ou esea ch indica es ha al hough social suppo is a ac o in academic achie emen ,
cogni i e skills, s udy skills, and ins i u ional esou ces p obably ha e signi ican oles o play as well[18].
3.3. Speci ic Dimensions o Social Suppo
The insigni ican esul s o pa icula social suppo dimensions and hei impac on a ious domains o psychological
well-being and academic success a e a compelling con as o ce ain ea lie esea ch. Fo example, ou esul ha
app aisal suppo does no ha e a signi ican impac on au onomy o pe sonal g ow h is a odds wi h Thoi s' (2011)
indings implying ha ex e nal alida ion can con ibu e o sel -e icacy and pe sonal de elopmen .
In he same ein, he absence o subs an ial co ela ions be ween angible suppo and mas e y o he en i onmen o
academic pe o mance con lic s wi h some s udies like hose by Cheng and Chan (2004), who e ealed ha angible
assis ance helped in he managemen o en i onmen al demands. [19] sugges ed, howe e , ha how use ul di e se
o ms o suppo a e depends on cul u al ci cums ances and pe sonal inclina ions, which may accoun o ou indings.
The non-signi ican e ec o sel -es eem suppo on pu pose in li e and sel -accep ance also depa s om wo ks such as
Taylo and Tu ne (2001), which iden i ied emo ional suppo wi h a mo e de eloped sel -concep . None heless, as Ryan
and Deci (2001) explain in hei sel - de e mina ion heo y, in insic mo i a ions could be mo e impo an o genuine

Las ly, he absence o subs an ial co ela ion be ween belonging suppo and posi i e ela ions o gene al well-being is
con a y o Baumeis e and Lea y's (1995) belongingness hypo hesis ha s a es ha he need o belong is a basic human

No ably, ou esea ch es ablished a high posi i e co ela ion be ween good ela ionships wi h o he people and

4. Conclusion
