Psychological resilience contributes to low emotional distress in cancer patients

Abstract: The present study suggests that psychological resilience may independently contribute to low emotional distress in cancer patients. The relationship between resilience and emotional distress was also significant in the subgroup of metastatic cancer patients. Psychosocial interventions to enhance resilience might provide useful approaches to overcome cancer-related emotional distress.

“…Furthermore, patients with low resilience scores have less capacity to deal with patterns of stress and other challenges resulting from the process of becoming ill (Erim et al, 2010;Ma et al, 2013;Min et al, 2013).These patients may demand greater care from health professionals, who need to be trained to meet this demand, hence the importance in developing psychosocial support (Cal & Santiago, 2013;Erim et al, 2010) and coping strategies for these conditions (Jaser & White, 2011).…”

“…The Relational pattern of resilience seems to have aspects to it which 'buffer' or lessen the impact of depression, and these include social support and relationships.

Having relationships with others can boost positive self-concepts and self-worth, thus increasing mental health.…”

“…It has been suggested that this may be due to the standard diagnostic nomenclature for depression being not completely applicable to men [145,146] and that diagnosis of depression in men requires the inclusion of additional symptoms [145,[147][148][149][150]. Some of those symptoms include aggression, irritability, and alcohol use, none of which are included in the diagnostic criteria for Major Depressive Disorder in the DSM-5 [4]or ICD-10 [151].…”
