Purpose
Post-traumatic growth (PTG) is defined as positive psychological changes experienced as a result of struggle with highly challenging life circumstances. Interest in PTG has increased in cancer survivorship care; however, little is known about PTG among stomach cancer survivors. This study aimed to examine the prevalence and correlates of PTG, and to identify relationships between PTG and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Methods Cross-sectional descriptive design. In total, 122 stomach cancer survivors were recruited from one university hospital in South Korea. Measurements included the Korean version of the Post-traumatic Growth Inventory and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy General Population. Results Over half (53.3%) of the participants experienced moderate to high levels of PTG. Change of self-perception was the most common growth domain, followed by relating to others, new possibilities and spiritual change. Older age, low socio-economic status (i.e. low education level and low monthly income) and lack of religion were associated with lower levels of PTG. Survivors with higher levels of PTG had better social/family well-being (P Conclusions Psychological interventions to enhance PTG may have a positive effect on impaired HRQOL among stomach cancer survivors. |
