Abstract

Purpose: Breast cancer is a prevalent and emotionally challenging condition that profoundly affects women worldwide. Effectively managing the mental and emotional dimensions of this disease is crucial for the holistic well-being of patients. Psychological capital (PsyCap) has emerged as a pivotal psychological construct with the potential to effectively address these challenges. This study aims to explore the influential role of PsyCap and its constructs on the subjective well-being (SWB) of Iranian breast cancer patients.

Methods: A total of 173 breast cancer patients participated in this study, selected through a random sampling approach. Face-to-face interview data on socio-demographics, PsyCap, and SWB were collected using a structured questionnaire. The analytical procedures encompassed independent sample t-tests, ANOVA tests, Pearson correlation tests, and stepwise multiple regression.

Results: The findings revealed that the majority of participants fell within the 41-50 age group (38.7%), with an average age of 46.50 ± 11.76 years, and 35.8% had tumor growth in the upper left lobe. The average PsyCap score was 107.93 ± 1.52 (out of a possible score of 144), whereas SWB scored 196.51 ± 1.90 (out of 291). Notably, PsyCap showed a positive correlation with SWB (r = 0.119), accounting for approximately 8% of the variance in SWB. The final regression model showed the substantial predictive roles of PsyCap (1.667), self-efficacy (-3.692), age (-2.977), and education (-3.939) in shaping SWB.

Conclusions: Focusing on understanding and addressing factors like PsyCap, self-efficacy, and educational support could improve SWB, offering a potential avenue for comprehensive and individualized psychosocial care for women with breast cancer.

伊朗乳腺癌患者的主观幸福感：探索心理资本的影响作用。

目的：乳腺癌是一种普遍存在且具有情感挑战性的疾病，对全世界的妇女都有深远的影响。有效管理这种疾病的心理和情绪层面对患者的整体健康至关重要。心理资本（PsyCap）已成为一种关键的心理结构，具有有效应对这些挑战的潜力。本研究旨在探讨心理资本及其构建对伊朗乳腺癌患者主观幸福感（SWB）的影响作用：本研究通过随机抽样的方式共选取了 173 名乳腺癌患者。研究采用结构化问卷，通过面对面访谈的方式收集了有关社会人口统计学、PsyCap 和 SWB 的数据。分析程序包括独立样本 t 检验、方差分析检验、皮尔逊相关检验和逐步多元回归：研究结果显示，大多数参与者属于 41-50 岁年龄组（38.7%），平均年龄为（46.50 ± 11.76）岁，35.8%的人肿瘤生长在左上叶。PsyCap 的平均得分为 107.93 ± 1.52（满分为 144 分），而 SWB 的平均得分为 196.51 ± 1.90（满分为 291 分）。值得注意的是，PsyCap 与 SWB 呈正相关（r = 0.119），约占 SWB 变异的 8%。最终回归模型显示，PsyCap（1.667）、自我效能感（-3.692）、年龄（-2.977）和教育程度（-3.939）对 SWB 的形成具有重要的预测作用：重点了解并解决心理上限、自我效能感和教育支持等因素可改善 SWB，从而为乳腺癌女性患者提供全面、个性化的社会心理护理。
