"angela knows that her roommate sakura has been having a tough time lately. wanting to , she has told sakura multiple times that she is available to hang out, to chat, or to offer whatever sakura needs to her cope. an equal number of times angela’s offers have been turned down, and she is starting to think she and sakura are not as close as she believed. what is another possible reason for sakura’s rebuffs"?

The answer is that there are cultural differences in social support seeking and how providers of social support are defined.

Explanation:

Difference in cultural differences between Sakura and Angela which prevent Sakura from accepting Angela's help and calls for socialization. Sakura comes from a different cultural background and is probably unaccustomed to Angela's incessant calls for heart-to-heart talks. Research on this topic was done by

Shelley E. Taylor, William T. Welch, Heejung S. Kim, David K. Sherman in Cultural Differences in the Impact of Social Support on Psychological and Biological Stress Responses. According to this research social support is believed to be a universally valuable resource for combating stress, yet Asians and Asian Americans report that social support is not helpful to them, resist seeking it, and are underrepresented among recipients of supportive services. They distinguish between explicit social support (seeking and using advice and emotional solace) and implicit social support (focusing on valued social groups) and show that Asians and Asian Americans are psychologically and biologically benefited more by implicit social support than by explicit social support; the reverse is true for European Americans.
