Compensatory couple effects: How a spouse’s life goals impact one’s own career and health outcomes

Life goals guide one’s behavior and can impact their life outcomes, but may conflict with their partner’s goals.

Overall, there were more actor than partner effects, but partner effects were especially numerous for health outcomes. Generally, ...
