    Abstract
    This study sought to expand on previous research regarding perceived adequacy of social support networks and depression among rural elderly from west central Wisconsin. This research integrated information across three data collections utilizing the OARS, SNQ, NSE, and CES-D to complete an exploratory regression analyses of conflict with friends, conflict with family, demographic information, and depression among 30 rural elderly. Analysis indicated four variables (DEPRESS2, DEPRESS1, CONFRN3 and CONFRN2) met the criteria for strong predictors of depressive symptoms in the final follow-up testing. Conflict with family was best predicted by previous conflict with friends (CONFRN2). The implications of the relationship of depressive symptomology and conflict within social support networks may have to future systemic discord and possible treatment implications are also discussed.
