Systematic Review of the Present Situation and Effect of Psychological Resilience Intervention for Tumor Patients

Abstract

Tumors are a major life-threatening stress event that causes serious physical and mental trauma to patients, reducing their quality of life. However, some people also adapt well to the same negative events. With the development of positive psychology, psychological resilience has gradually become a research hotspot. This article analyzes the psychological resilience intervention for cancer patients. Committed to exploring the influencing factors and mechanisms of psychological resilience, there are relatively few intervention studies that truly attempt to improve the level of psychological resilience, and there is a lack of practical and recognized specific intervention methods to effectively improve psychological resilience. The possible reason for this may be that patients with low psychological resilience scores cannot demonstrate good psychological adaptability when facing stress conditions such as gynecological malignancies, surgery, and chemotherapy. They cannot alleviate emotions such as denial and fear by strengthening communication with others, and pay too much attention to the discomfort and consequences caused by the disease, resulting in a pessimistic prognosis.
