Relationships between Canadian adult cancer survivors’ annual household income and emotional/practical concerns, help‐seeking and unmet needs
The objective of this study was to explore the relationship among income and emotional/practical concerns, help-seeking and unmet needs for cancer survivors aged 18 to 64 years one to three years after treatment. A cross-sectional survey was mailed in 2016 to 40,790 survivors randomly selected from 10 Canadian provincial cancer registries. Thirty-three percent responded. A trend analysis was conducted for survivors most likely to be in the workfo…
Cultural Aspects of Healthy BRCA Carriers From Two Ethnocultural Groups
We explored the experiences of Ashkenazi Jewish and French Canadian women and meanings attributed to their hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) risk. We purposively sampled 40 BRCA1 or BRCA2 (BRCA) mutation carriers and conducted theoretically driven semistructured interviews. According to content analysis, participants from these two ethnocultural groups held divergent meanings associated with being a BRCA carrier and different views pert…
Patient Decision Making Among Older Individuals With Cancer
Patient decision making is an area of increasing inquiry. For older individuals experiencing cancer, variations in health and functional status, physiologic aspects of aging, and tension between quality and quantity of life present unique challenges to treatment-related decision making. We used the pragmatic utility method to analyze the concept of patient decision making in the context of older individuals with cancer. We first evaluated its mat…
Health Information—Seeking Behavior
Seeking information about one's health is increasingly documented as a key coping strategy in health-promotive activities and psychosocial adjustment to illness. In this article, the authors critically examine the scientific literature from 1982 to 2006 on the concept of health information—seeking behavior (HISB) to determine its level of maturity and clarify the concept's essential characteristics. A principle-based method of concept analysis pr…
Cross-Cultural Validation of the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) in U.S. and Peruvian Populations
The cross-cultural relevance of alexithymia, a psychological construct related to emotional expressiveness, is explored through construct validation using the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) and two theoretically related concepts – patient self-disclosure (SD) and private selfconsciousness (PSC) – among English-speaking Americans ( N= 333) and Spanish-speaking Peruvians ( N= 228). In the American sample, the TAS-20 showed psychometric …
