dc.abstract.enObjective: The study aimed to expand the existing research on the meaning-making processes in cancer by examining (1) the relationship between daily meaning making and meanings made versus the emotional and social wellbeing in survivor-caregiver dyads, (2) whether meanings made moderated or mediated the meaning-making–wellbeing associations at the within- and between-dyad level, and (3) whether meaning factors varied across or within persons. Methods: Two hundred dyads completed measures of meaning-making, meanings made, positive and negative affect, and loneliness for 28 consecutive posthospitalization days following hematopoietic cell transplantation. Computations were based on the actor-partner interdependence model and its extensions, using multilevel structural equation modeling. Results: Positive emotional effects of meanings made and mixed effects of meaning-making were found. Meanings made mediated, but not moderated, the association between meaning making and affect. Meaning factors varied substantially between- but less so within-person. Conclusions: Further research on the meaning-making process and practical actions will require a greater focus on the level of the analysis, the role in the dyad, and interpersonal aspects.
