This study examines positive reframing (a form of meaning making), perceived benefits (a form of meanings made) and adjustment in couples who experienced a stressful life event in the past year. This study tested whether couple members' scores were nonindependent and whether one's own perceived benefits was predicted by their own positive reframing (actor effect) as well as their partner's positive reframing (partner effect). Further, this study tested actor and partner effects for the link between perceived benefits and adjustment and whether positive reframing (the initial variable) works through perceived benefits (the mediator) to affect adjustment (the outcome) at the dyadic level.
A standard dyadic design was used.
Eighty couples completed measures of positive reframing, perceived benefits, and adjustment (depression, anxiety, positive affect, life satisfaction, and relationship satisfaction).
Partners' scores on study variables were related, and although only actor effects were found for the path between positive reframing and perceived benefits, both actor and partner effects were found for the path between perceived benefits and adjustment. Mediation was found for actor-actor and actor-partner indirect effects.
Results indicate that a greater focus on interpersonal factors is needed to further meaning-making theory and inform practice.
本研究考察了积极重塑（一种意义构建形式）、感知益处（一种意义构建形式）以及在过去一年经历过压力生活事件的夫妇中的调整情况。本研究检验了夫妻双方的得分是否相互独立，以及一个人自己的感知益处是否可以通过自己的积极重塑（主体效应）以及伴侣的积极重塑（伴侣效应）来预测。此外，本研究还检验了感知益处和调整之间的联系的主体和伴侣效应，以及积极重塑（初始变量）是否通过感知益处（中介变量）在夫妻层面上影响调整（结果）。
采用标准的夫妻设计。
80 对夫妇完成了积极重塑、感知益处和调整（抑郁、焦虑、积极情绪、生活满意度和关系满意度）的测量。
研究变量的伴侣得分相关，尽管在积极重塑和感知益处之间的关系中只发现了主体效应，但在感知益处和调整之间的关系中都发现了主体和伴侣效应。对主体-主体和主体-伴侣间接效应进行了中介分析。
结果表明，需要更加关注人际因素，以进一步发展意义构建理论并为实践提供信息。
