Lived Experiences of Women Navigating End-of-Life Caregiving and Parenting During the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic intensified the burden on informal caregivers, particularly those with dual caregiving roles. This grounded theory study explores the lived experiences of women who simultaneously cared for a hospitalized family member at the end of life and for minor children during the pandemic. We aimed to examine how the intersection of these roles influenced women’s experiences during caregiving and into bereavement. We analyzed 11 qual…
Validation of the Japanese version of the death and dying distress scale
BACKGROUND: The Death and Dying Distress Scale (DADDS) is a self-report instrument used to assess distress related to dying and death in patients with advanced cancer. We aimed to test the reliability and validity of the Japanese-translated version of the DADDS (DADDS-J) and evaluate its psychological properties in patients with advanced cancer in Japan. METHODS: Japanese participants with advanced cancer (n = 200) completed the DADDS and additio…
Seizing the opportunity
Background In oncology, the standard of care (SoC) is rapidly evolving, and increasingly unaffordable, prompting both patients and providers to enroll in commercial clinical trials as a means to access the SoC. The experiences of trial participants and their providers in Latin America remain largely unknown. We report their experiences and relationships of care(giving) within the trial in a cancer center in Santiago, Chile. We examine how the gap…
“If I am here, it is because the system failed”
BACKGROUND: The pharmaceutical industry is a key global health actor given its crucial role in the development and testing of medicines. Within Latin America, Chile currently has the highest number of multinational commercial clinical trials per inhabitant, predominantly for oncological therapies. Insufficient attention has been paid to context-specific conditions that enable clinical trials' successful implementation in the Global South. In exam…
Hope and Despair in the Therapeutic Relationship
Christian Sell describes a therapeutic process with a patient who struggled with feelings of hopelessness and despair. He reveals how unbearable he initially found the passivity of the patient to be and how tormented he felt by the sessions at that time. He suggests that helping the patient to find hope depended upon the therapist’s resistance to the patient’s despair and maintenance of a therapeutic posture intermediate between activity and pass…

Testing terror management theory in advanced cancer
Death anxiety is common in advanced cancer due to heightened mortality salience. We tested terror management theory (TMT) in this population ( N = 305) by evaluating the buffering effect of the distal defenses (attachment security, meaning, self-esteem) on the impact of physical impairment (a proxy for mortality salience) on death anxiety. Patients with greater numbers of strong distal defenses reported lower death anxiety than those with no stro…
Psychotherapeutic Interventions Near the End of Life
This special issue of the Australian Psychologist on psychology at the end of life is most timely in view of the rising prevalence and mortality rates from cancer and other non‐communicable diseases, largely due to the ageing of the world's population. An important focus in the papers in this edition is the subjective experience of patients and families and interventions that involve empathy, meaning‐making, and narrative construction. This focus…
Satisfaction with oncology care among patients with advanced cancer and their caregivers
Goals Set in the Land of the Living/Dying
A longitudinal qualitative research study was undertaken to provide an understanding of a prolonged experience of advanced cancer, as seen through the eyes of dying individuals. Using a variant of the grounded theory method, the authors theoretically sampled, from outpatient clinics in a large comprehensive cancer treatment center, 27 patients with either advanced lung or gastrointestinal cancer who had an expected survival of up to 2 years. The …
Age and depression in patients with metastatic cancer
Psychological distress in cancer patients is inversely related to age, although the reasons are unclear. The adult development literature suggests that ageing may be associated with the development of adaptive capacities, specifically greater attachment security (the sense that others will be available and supportive when needed) and spirituality (the capacity to view one's life as having meaning, purpose and value), that enable older people to c…

Stress Response Syndromes in Women Undergoing Mammography
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence, severity, and correlates of acute stress responses in women undergoing diagnostic mammographic surveillance and to explore the moderating impact of physician support on these symptoms. METHODS: Sixty-six female breast cancer outpatients (at least 12 months after diagnosis and primary treatment) and 69 healthy women undergoing mammographic surveillance completed measures of: acute s…
Illness experience, meaning and help-seeking among Chinese immigrants in Canada with chronic fatigue and weakness
Clinically significant symptoms and disorders of medically unexplained chronic fatigue and weakness constitute a serious problems for primary care with considerable cost, patient dissatisfaction, and clinician frustration. Such problems are likely to be more troublesome when cultural differences make if difficult for patients and clinicians to communicate adequately to establish an effective alliance for treatment. This research studied 50 Chines…

Somatization
Somatization is a complex phenomenon that occurs in many forms and diverse settings. It is not necessarily pathological and may be found in a variety of psychiatric disorders. Much of the psychiatric literature has focused on patients with conversion disorders and hypochondriasis. Psychoanalytic theories regarding such conditions were largely based upon concepts of drive, conflict, and defense. The perspective from self psychology, with its empha…
The diagnosis of major depression in renal dialysis patients
Controversy exists regarding the frequency of depression in renal dialysis patients. We have assessed an unselected sample of 99 dialysis patients using the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS). A current Major Depressive Episode (MDE) was diagnosed in 8.1% of the sample, one-half of whom had a past history of MDE. An additional 12.1% had only a past history of depression. In contrast to patients with no affective disorder, characteristics of pati…
