“…Higher illness acceptance increased patients' ability to adapt to the illness condition and improve medication adherence, thereby lessening their AG 13,14 . Higher illness acceptance in caregivers helped relieve anxiety and ineffective resistance to the disease, thus reducing negative emotional reactions 12,15 . Most prior research has focused on family caregivers' AG from the caregivers' perspective; few studies have considered patients' perspectives and their interactions and individual differences in AG generation.…”
