This study investigates couples' adjustment to rectal cancer and a colostomy using the 'Classification System of Couple Adjustment to Cancer', a framework delineating fluctuations in couples' sense of 'I' and 'We' in response to cancer. Nine couples affected by rectal cancer and adjusting to life with a colostomy were interviewed. A theoretical thematic analysis of the transcripts was conducted; nearly all 'I-We' shifts of the Classification System of Couple Adjustment to Cancer were observed - often in unique ways in response to rectal cancer-specific challenges - and one new shift was described. The results provide a novel and experientially grounded means of conceptualizing complex dyadic coping processes.
本研究使用“夫妻对癌症的调适分类系统”来调查夫妻对直肠癌和结肠造口术的调适情况，该框架描绘了夫妻在应对癌症时“我”和“我们”意识的波动。对九对受直肠癌影响并适应结肠造口术生活的夫妻进行了访谈。对访谈记录进行了理论主题分析；观察到了“夫妻对癌症的调适分类系统”中几乎所有的“我-我们”转变——通常是以应对直肠癌特定挑战的独特方式——并描述了一种新的转变。研究结果提供了一种新颖且基于经验的方法来概念化复杂的二元应对过程。
