In efforts to better understand the intricate nature of response, we tested a four-dimension structure of response patterns (measured as support, reciprocity, emotional reaction, and avoidance) as well as four single dimension models within the context of couples managing cancer. All models incorporate dyadic data, including both patient and partner perceptions that relational quality influences response patterns, and response patterns influence ongoing disclosure (measured as breadth and depth). Participants were 95 dyads in which one partner had been diagnosed with cancer. We conducted multilevel analyses using an actor-partner interdependence model. Results supported the four-dimension model as well as individual dimension models. All response types predict within person disclosure. However, only reciprocity predicts the other person's disclosure, and only patient's reports of partner reciprocity predict partner disclosure.
为了更好地理解反应的复杂本质，我们在夫妻共同应对癌症的背景下，测试了反应模式的四维度结构（以支持、互惠、情绪反应和回避来衡量），以及四个单一维度模型。所有模型都包含了对偶数据，包括患者和伴侣的感知，即关系质量影响反应模式，而反应模式又影响持续披露（以广度和深度来衡量）。参与者是 95 对伴侣，其中一方被诊断患有癌症。我们使用演员-伙伴相互依存模型进行了多层次分析。结果支持四维度模型以及各个单一维度模型。所有的反应类型都可以预测个体的披露。然而，只有互惠可以预测另一个人的披露，而且只有患者对伴侣互惠的报告可以预测伴侣的披露。
