“…High levels of FCR can be found in newly diagnosed cancer patients, adult cancer survivors and haematologic tumour survivors receiving haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), etc.. Anxiety and depression symptoms, post-traumatic stress symptoms and use of psychotropic drugs are significantly positively associated with FCR levels [ 1–3 ]. A poor patient–physician relationship (PPR) was also identified as a contributing factor to high levels of FCR [ 4 ]. FCR is also present in relatives of cancer patients and is negatively associated with quality of life [ 5 ].…”

Objective To develop a Fear of Cancer Scale (FOCS) for non-cancer populations. Methods FOCS was developed by classical measurement theory. A total of 15 college students were invited to conduct semi-structured interviews. Seven experts were invited for expert consultation. A total of 2012 Chinese college students who had completed the electronic questionnaire on WJX.cn platform was included. The reliability and validity of FOCS were verified. Multiple linear regression analysis was adopted to explore the influencing factors of cancer fear among college students and further verify the validity of FOCS. Results There were 17 items in the FOCS, including two subscales – direct fear (8 items), and indirect fear (9 items). FOCS had good validity and reliability. Multiple linear regression showed that GAD-7 score, CSDS score, negative coping score, positive coping score, guardian’s highest education, gender, life satisfaction, nationality and major were the influencing factors of cancer fear ( p < .05). Conclusions The 17-item FOCS was a reliable and valid measure to examine the level of cancer fear in non-cancer populations.
