Dyadic coping theories posit that spousal involvement may benefit illness management through collaborative and supportive (C&S) strategies and shared illness appraisals. Illness appraisals have only been examined as individual differences rather than fluctuating daily as individuals manage the difficult Type 1 diabetes regimen. The study examined how daily illness appraisals of individuals with Type 1 diabetes and their spouses were linked to spouses' daily C&S strategies and whether C&S strategies were most beneficial for daily diabetes outcomes when they occurred in the context of shared illness appraisals.
