Abstract

Background: Little work has examined how coping efficacy and lung cancer-related social isolation relate to social well-being in the context of a patient's computed tomography (CT) scan. Researchers tested the cross-sectional relationship of social isolation and social well-being, and the longitudinal relationship between coping efficacy and social well-being before CT scans.

Method: 25 patients with lung cancer, within 6 months of their upcoming CT scan, participated. Baseline surveys collected clinical information, demographics, and social isolation; repeated monthly surveys collected coping efficacy and social well-being every 30 days until one's scan.

Results: [Cross-sectional] High levels of social isolation were associated with low levels of social well-being. [Longitudinal] On months patients reported high coping efficacy, they also reported increases in social well-being.

Conclusions: Social interventions may improve well-being among those with lung cancer as our work shows that getting and receiving support are strongly related to well-being in the time surrounding a scan.

肺癌患者随时间变化的社会隔离、应对能力和社会福利。

背景：很少有研究探讨在患者进行计算机断层扫描（CT）时，应对效能和肺癌相关的社会隔离与社会幸福感之间的关系。研究人员测试了社会隔离与社会幸福感之间的横向关系，以及 CT 扫描前应对效能与社会幸福感之间的纵向关系。基线调查收集临床信息、人口统计学和社会隔离；每月重复调查收集应对效能和社会幸福感，每30天调查一次，直至扫描结束：[横向]高社会隔离度与低社会幸福感相关。[纵向]在患者报告应对效能较高的月份，他们也报告社会幸福感有所提高：我们的工作表明，获得和接受支持与扫描前后的幸福感密切相关。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Behavioral Medicine is a broadly conceived interdisciplinary publication devoted to furthering understanding of physical health and illness through the knowledge, methods, and techniques of behavioral science. A significant function of the journal is the application of this knowledge to prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation and to the promotion of health at the individual, community, and population levels.The content of the journal spans all areas of basic and applied behavioral medicine research, conducted in and informed by all related disciplines including but not limited to: psychology, medicine, the public health sciences, sociology, anthropology, health economics, nursing, and biostatistics. Topics welcomed include but are not limited to: prevention of disease and health promotion; the effects of psychological stress on physical and psychological functioning; sociocultural influences on health and illness; adherence to medical regimens; the study of health related behaviors including tobacco use, substance use, sexual behavior, physical activity, and obesity; health services research; and behavioral factors in the prevention and treatment of somatic disorders. Reports of interdisciplinary approaches to research are particularly welcomed.
