Stress, depression and medication nonadherence in diabetes: test of the exacerbating and buffering effects of family support.
The researchers tested the moderation hypotheses that the associations between stressors/depressive symptoms and nonadherence would be stronger in the context of more obstructive family behaviors (exacerbating hypothesis) and weaker in the context of more supportive family behaviors (buffering hypothesis). They found that stressors and nonadherence were only associated at higher levels of obstructive family behaviors. Similarly, depressive symptoms and nonadherence were only associated at higher levels of obstructive family behaviors.
