Disease-related communication difficulties and dyadic coping among patients with breast cancer and their spouses: An actor–partner interdependence model
Dyadic coping levels in couples are interactively influenced by their own communication problems and their partner's communication problems. A couple-centered disease communication strategy should be established to improve psychological and social adaptation among spouses. Such an approach may strengthen collaborative coping, deepen relational intimacy, enhance support efficacy, and provide a stronger psychosocial foundation for disease management.
