Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to identify specific sub-types of hope levels in breast cancer (BC) patients and explore the influencing factors.

Methods

Between August and December 2023, 528 BC patients took part in this study. Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was employed using the Herth Hope Index, Distress Thermometer, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Social Support Rating Scale, BC survivors' self-efficacy scale and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast to identify clusters of hope levels.

Results

Three potential categories of hope levels were identified: Low Hope Level—Harmonious-Calm Type (33.71%); Moderate Hope Level–Isolation Fear Type (37.12%); and High Hope Level—Optimistic Coping Type (29.17%). The study established that social support, quality of life, psychological distress, self-efficacy, occupation, income, education and type of surgery are factors influencing hope levels.

Conclusion

Hope levels within BC patients exhibit identifiable heterogeneity. By discerning the features associated with hope levels, the focus extends beyond patients' occupations, income, education and surgical procedures. It also underscores the importance of enhancing social support, quality of life and self-efficacy while mitigating psychological distress. This targeted approach aims to formulate interventions specifically designed to effectively elevate hope levels in BC patients.

乳腺癌患者希望水平的属性及影响因素：一项潜在剖面分析。

目的：本研究旨在明确乳腺癌（BC）患者希望水平的具体亚型，并探讨其影响因素。方法：在2023年8月至12月期间，528例BC患者参与了这项研究。采用潜在特征分析（LPA），采用赫斯希望指数、痛苦温度计、医院焦虑和抑郁量表、社会支持评定量表、BC幸存者自我效能量表和癌症治疗-乳房功能评估来确定希望水平的聚类。结果：确定了3种潜在的希望水平类型：低希望-和谐-平静型（33.71%）；中度希望-隔离恐惧型（37.12%）；高希望乐观型（29.17%）。研究发现，社会支持、生活质量、心理困扰、自我效能、职业、收入、教育程度和手术类型是影响希望水平的因素。结论：BC患者的希望水平表现出明显的异质性。通过识别与希望程度相关的特征，重点超越了患者的职业、收入、教育和手术程序。它还强调了在减轻心理痛苦的同时加强社会支持、生活质量和自我效能的重要性。这种有针对性的方法旨在制定专门设计的干预措施，有效地提高BC患者的希望水平。
