Abstract

Background. Purpose in life is important to health and well-being; purpose disruption often goes unidentified after breast cancer. Purpose. To evaluate the efficacy of a purpose renewal intervention and utility of a screening question for identifying people with purpose-related distress. Method. In this prospective pretest-posttest study, participants with breast cancer received an 8-session purpose renewal group intervention (n = 35). Participants completed standardized measures of meaning and purpose at pretest, posttest, and two-month follow-up and a forced-choice Purpose Status Question (PSQ) at pretest. Findings. Participants made statistically significant pretest-to-posttest and pretest-to-follow-up improvements. The PSQ demonstrated construct validity: 40% of participants lacked purpose direction at pretest and this subgroup made significantly greater improvements than participants who reported purpose direction at pretest. Implications. The PSQ warrants further study as a screener to identify people with purpose-related distress. Many breast cancer survivors may benefit from a purpose in life intervention; a subgroup may benefit more.

职业导向目的在乳腺癌术后生活干预中的初步效果。

背景。生活的目标对健康和幸福很重要;乳腺癌后，目的的破坏往往无法被发现。目的。评估目的更新干预的有效性和筛选问题在识别与目的相关的痛苦人群中的效用。方法。在这项前瞻性前测后测研究中，乳腺癌患者接受了8期目的更新组干预(n = 35)。参与者在测试前、测试后和两个月的随访中完成了意义和目的的标准化测量，并在测试前完成了一个强制选择的目的状态问题(PSQ)。发现。参与者在测试前到测试后和测试前到随访的改善上有统计学意义。PSQ证明了结构效度:40%的参与者在前测时缺乏目标方向，这一亚组比在前测时报告目标方向的参与者取得了显著的改善。的影响。PSQ作为一种筛选者，值得进一步研究，以识别与目的相关的痛苦。许多乳腺癌幸存者可能受益于生活干预的目的;一个小组可能受益更多。
