Emotion Regulation Patterns among Colorectal Cancer Survivors: Clustering and Associations with Personal Coping Resources

Resilience and related factors in colorectal cancer patients: A systematic review

“…Some of the research covered in this review demonstrated how an intervention aiming to help in practical self-care issues and develop coping strategies can ease mental and physical burden, as well as improve resilience (Lin et al, 2020;Zhang et al, 2020). Baziliansky and Cohen (2020) reported that patients with more adaptive emotion regulation strategies and self-compassion showed better resilience relative to other patients. All of these findings agree with what has been presented in previous studies.…”

“…Hence, despite a cancer diagnosis, they showed resilience. A patient's economic situation (Zhang et al, 2019;Baziliansky and Cohen, 2020), self-compassion (Baziliansky and Cohen, 2020), enthusiasm, alertness (Gouzman et al, 2015), older age and male gender (Cohen et al, 2014) were found to influence resilience. Resilience was associated with social support, hope, mental and physical burden, quality of life, and post-traumatic growth.…”

“…This systematic review clarified the phenomenon of resilience among colorectal cancer patients, as well as identified future avenues for research. Although some of the reviewed studies presented resilience as an individual quality (Gouzman et al, 2015;Baziliansky and Cohen, 2020;Ҫakir et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2020), most agreed that resilience might not be an immutable situation for colorectal cancer patients. The reviewed studies provided evidence that well-designed interventions can improve resilience (Lin et al, 2020;Zhang et al, 2020), identified associations between social support and resilience (Costa et al, 2017;Dong et al, 2017;Ҫakir et al, 2021), and reported that patients can improve their ability to confront challenging future events (Gouzman et al, 2015;Dong et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2020).…”

“…As a part of self-perceived burden, patient economic burden was significantly associated with resilience (r = − 0.337, p < 0.01, β = − 0.337, p ≤ 0.001) (Zhang et al, 2019). Moreover, Baziliansky and Cohen (2020) noted that the group of patients with better resilience levels also had a better economic status than other patients (F = 7.25, effect size 0.09, p < 0.01).…”

“…Resilience was described as a changeable path (Solano et al, 2016), response (Lin et al, 2020), and adaptation process. Resilience was also treated as an individual quality, more specifically, it was described as toughness (Zhang et al, 2020), capacity (Baziliansky and Cohen, 2020;Ҫakir et al, 2021), and a coping ability (Gouzman et al, 2015). However, in most studies, resilience was seen as a mediator (Cohen et al, 2014;Dong et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2019) or an ally (Costa et al, 2017) for positive changes (Cohen et al, 2014;Gouzman et al, 2015;Solano et al, 2016;Costa et al, 2017;Dong et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2019Zhang et al, , 2020 and better adjustment (Cohen et al, 2014;Gouzman et al, 2015;Costa et al, 2017).…”
