Measure
Dyadic CARE
Dyads randomized to receive dyadic CARE. Dyadic CARE involved both dyad members attending 2 sessions and completing a workbook together. Session 1 typically occurred immediately following baseline/randomization (maximum: 2 weeks later). Session 2 typically occurred 2 weeks after Session 1 (maximum: 4 weeks later).
Supporter-Only CARE
Dyads randomized to receive supporter-only CARE. Supporter-only CARE involved the supporter attending 2 sessions and completing a workbook with the survivor. Session 1 typically occurred immediately following baseline/randomization (maximum: 2 weeks later). Session 2 typically occurred 2 weeks after Session 1 (maximum: 4 weeks later).
Waitlist Control
Dyads randomized to receive waitlist CARE (invited to complete the CARE version of the survivor's choice following the completion of study measures)
