European Journal of Oncology Nursing(2023)
摘要
Purpose: To examine the psychosocial adjustment of young to middle-aged women who were newly diagnosed with breast cancer and to determine the comprehensive risk factors contributing to psychosocial adjustment. Methods: This study was carried out on 358 young to middle-aged women who recently received a breast cancer diagnosis in two hospitals in Guangzhou, China. Participants reported data about sociodemographic characteristics, disease and treatment information, coping modes, social support, self-efficacy, and psychosocial adjustment. To analyze the data, the researchers utilized independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, and multiple linear regression.Results: The results showed that the participants exhibited a moderate level of psychosocial maladjustment, with a mean score of 42.44 & PLUSMN; 15.38. Additionally, 30.4% of the participants were classified as having severe psychosocial maladjustment. The study identified the coping mode of acceptance-resignation (& beta; = 0.367, P < 0.001), mode of avoidance (& beta; = -0.248, P = 0.001), social support (& beta; = -0.239, P < 0.001), self-efficacy (& beta; = -0.199, P = 0.001) as factors that impacted the level of psychosocial adjustment.Conclusions: Psychosocial adjustment among young to middle-aged women who were newly diagnosed with breast cancer is affected by self-efficacy, social support, and coping modes. Healthcare professionals should pay attention to psychosocial adjustment in young to middle-aged women with breast cancer at the time of diagnosis, and could formulate effective interventions to improve their psychosocial adjustment by increasing self-efficacy, promoting social support, and encouraging effective coping.
