Abstract

In this study, I investigated parenting concerns and worries in parents during cancer treatment and examined the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Parenting Concerns Questionnaire. Reliability, as well as factorial and convergent validity, were analyzed. A total sample size of 145 parents during cancer treatment (parents of children aged 18 years or younger at the time of the survey) participated in the study. The study was an online survey method conducted between January 2019 and December 2021. Parents were sent a survey link and were requested to fill the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), the Parenting Stress Index (PSI-3-SF), the SF-36v2 Health Survey (SF-36v2), and the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS). The author received permission for using these questionnaires in online research. Confirmatory factor analysis of the Polish version of the Parenting Concerns Questionnaire did not confirm the original three-factor structure. However, the standardized factor loadings for the three factors were moderate to high. Additionally, apart from high-reliability estimates, this instrument proved to have good convergent and discriminant validity for all three factors. The PCQ-PL demonstrated adequate convergent validity with expected correlations with parenting stress, perceived stress, quality of life, and family resilience. The results suggest that the PCQ-PL is a reliable and relatively valid measurement tool to evaluate the level of parental concerns in Polish patients. The PCQ can be a useful tool to recognize parents with cancer who might need psychological support regarding combining the role of a parent and oncological patient.

波兰版癌症父母养育问题问卷的心理测量特性

在这项研究中，我调查了癌症治疗期间父母的育儿问题和担忧，并检查了波兰版育儿问题问卷的心理测量特性。信度、因子效度和收敛效度进行了分析。共有145名接受癌症治疗的父母(调查时孩子年龄在18岁或以下)参与了这项研究。该研究是在2019年1月至2021年12月期间进行的在线调查方法。家长被发送一个调查链接，并被要求填写感知压力量表(PSS-10)、父母压力指数(PSI-3-SF)、SF-36v2健康调查(SF-36v2)和家庭弹性评估量表(FRAS)。作者已获得许可将这些问卷用于在线研究。波兰版本的父母关注问卷的验证性因素分析没有证实原来的三因素结构。然而，这三个因素的标准化因子负荷是中等到高的。此外，除了高信度估计外，该工具对所有三个因素都具有良好的收敛效度和判别效度。PCQ-PL与父母压力、感知压力、生活质量和家庭弹性具有足够的收敛效度。结果表明，PCQ-PL是一个可靠和相对有效的测量工具，以评估波兰患者的父母的关注水平。PCQ是一种有用的工具，可以识别患有癌症的父母，他们可能需要心理支持，将父母和肿瘤患者的角色结合起来。
