Stressors generated by chronic illnesses in adolescents are experienced in the broader social context of their lives. The purpose of this study was to examine the social networks of 15 adolescents with type 1 diabetes and 25 parents and evaluate associations of social support and kinship type with state and trait anxiety. Social network data were collected through individual interviews. Participants completed self-reported measures of anxiety. Adolescents with lower anxiety had greater overlap with their parents' networks and more network members with whom they would not share their feelings. Parents with increased anxiety had more network members who provide support for everyday stressors, or with whom they lose their temper. The type of support provided by biological and social kin differed for adolescents versus parents. Tailored interventions leveraging existing social networks could be a key mechanism for supporting family responses to stress-provoking situations in the context of childhood chronic illness.
