Abstract: Objective  To explore the status quo of dyadic coping in infertility patients and their spouses, and to analyze the factors of differences in dyadic coping strategies between patients and their spouses. 
Methods  With general information questionnaires and Dyadic Coping Inventory(DCI) as measurement tools, a convenient sampling method was used to investigate and study 195 female infertility patients and their spouses. 
Results  A total of 188 pairs of valid questionnaires were collected for patients and their spouses. The dyadic coping level of infertility patients and their spouses was at a low normal level. There were statistically significant differences in the patients and their spouses with respect to stress communication,perceived pressure communication, self-agency supportive, perceived agency supportive, self-negative support coping, and perceived negative support coping(P＜0.05). The differences of self-positive support coping, perceived positive support coping, co-response and response evaluation between patients and their spouses was not statistically significant(P＞0.05). There are statistically significant differences in the dyadic coping scores of patients with different residences, years of marriage, education level, occupation, average monthly income, the only child, and duration of infertility(P＜0.05). Significant differences were found in spouses' dyadic coping scores with respect to different residences, years of marriage, education level, occupation and average monthly income(P＜0.05). The results of multiple linear regression model showed that education level and average monthly income were the influencing factors of patients' dyadic coping score, while year of marriage, education level, and average monthly income were the influencing factors of spouse's dyadic coping score(P＜0.05).
Conclusion  The dyadic coping levels of infertility patients and their spouses need to be improved. and the dyadic coping strategies are different.
