Exploring dyadic coping, self-efficacy, and quality of life in patients with cervical cancer and their spousal caregivers: an actor-partner interdependence mediated model analysis

The study highlights the critical role of dyadic coping mechanisms and self-efficacy in enhancing the QoL of patients with cervical cancer and their spousal caregivers. These findings support the need for psychosocial interventions aimed at strengthening both dyadic coping and self-efficacy to improve the overall well-being in a cancer context. The insights offer a promising avenue for nursing practice in cervical cancer, suggesting that fostering these psychosocial resources can help manage the complex demands of cancer care.
