Abstract
Background: Cancer diagnosis and treatment can have severe psychological impacts on children that can affect various aspects of their emotional, social and cognitive functioning. Many children with cancer experience long-term psychological distresses. The psychological well-being (PWB) is a critical aspect of their overall health. Understanding the factors that influence their psychological state can help in developing effective interventions to support them.
Purpose: This scoping review aimed to identify and summarize the factors associated with PWB among children with cancer.
Methods: This study applied a scoping review using the guidelines outlined in the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). A comprehensive literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, CINAHL, Taylor and Francis, and Scopus. Inclusion criteria were included by keywords Psychological well-being OR Psychological AND Children OR Child OR Pediatric OR Childhood AND Adolescent OR Teenagers OR Youth AND Cancer OR Neoplasms OR Tumors OR Malignancy OR Cancer Survivors AND predictor OR factors OR determinant. Studies were included if they investigated psychological well-being in children (aged 0-18 years) with cancer. The Arksey and O'Malley framework for scoping reviews guided the methodology, including study selection, data extraction, and thematic analysis. The quality of the evidence was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) critical appraisal checklist.
Results: 12 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. The factors most frequently reported in several categories are age (sociodemographic), psychological function (individual factors), age at diagnosis (health and history), parent attachment and school status (environmental factors).
Conclusion: This review found several aspects that describe the PWB of the articles reviewed. These aspects consist of anxiety, depression, distress, well-being, and self-esteem. From these aspects, many predictors were obtained, which were classified into four categories of factors related to the PWB of children with cancer.
背景:癌症的诊断和治疗会对儿童产生严重的心理影响,影响他们的情感、社会和认知功能的各个方面。许多患有癌症的儿童经历了长期的心理困扰。心理健康(PWB)是他们整体健康的一个重要方面。了解影响他们心理状态的因素有助于制定有效的干预措施来支持他们。目的:本综述旨在确定和总结与癌症儿童PWB相关的因素。方法:本研究采用PRISMA范围审查扩展(PRISMA- scr)中概述的指南进行范围审查。在PubMed、CINAHL、Taylor and Francis、Scopus等多个数据库中进行了全面的文献检索。纳入标准包括以下关键词:心理健康、心理健康、儿童、儿童、儿童、青少年、青少年、青少年、癌症、肿瘤、肿瘤、恶性肿瘤、癌症幸存者、预测因子、因素或决定因素。如果研究对象是患有癌症的儿童(0-18岁),他们的心理健康状况也会被纳入其中。Arksey和O'Malley的范围评估框架指导了方法论,包括研究选择、数据提取和专题分析。使用乔安娜布里格斯研究所(JBI)和混合方法评估工具(MMAT)关键评估清单评估证据的质量。结果:12篇文章符合纳入标准,被纳入综述。在若干类别中最常报告的因素是年龄(社会人口)、心理功能(个人因素)、诊断年龄(健康和病史)、父母依恋和学校状况(环境因素)。结论:本综述发现了描述所综述文章的PWB的几个方面。这些方面包括焦虑、抑郁、痛苦、幸福和自尊。从这些方面得到了许多预测因素,并将与癌症儿童PWB相关的因素分为四类。
