Prediction of suicidal ideation and rumination based on illness perception and social support in cancer patients: A cross-sectional study.
Purpose: According to the World Health Organization, cancer is the second leading cause of death globally after cardiovascular diseases and the third leading cause of death in Iran. It is generally accepted that suicidal thoughts and rumination affect the treatment process of cancer. As the rate of suicide in the first 6 months after cancer diagnosis has been reported seven times compared to the general population. On the other hand, it seems that patients' perception of their disease and social support are predictors of suicidal thoughts and rumination in these patients. In this study, we investigated the impact of disease perception and social support on the level of suicidal thoughts and rumination in cancer patients.
Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on the adult cancer patients of Hamadan city in 2024. A total of 250 patients were selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSSI), the Nolen-Hoeksema and Morrow Rumination Questionnaire, the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), and the Social Support Questionnaire (SS-A). Data analysis was performed using Pearson correlation coefficient and regression analysis with the application of SPSS-26 software.
Results: The findings indicate that social support (β = - 0.458, p < 0.001 (and disease perception (β = 0.168, p = 0.003) are significant predictors of suicidal thoughts. Additionally, increased disease perception (β = 0.242, p = 0.000) can lead to increased rumination (β = - 0.379, p = 0.000), while social support (β = - 0.379, p = 0.000) plays a protective role in reducing rumination.
Discussion: The results of this study show that disease perception and social support can predict suicidal thoughts and rumination in cancer patients. Clinically, the findings emphasize the necessity of considering psychological factors such as disease perception and social support in the treatment process of cancer patients.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Causes & Control is an international refereed journal that both reports and stimulates new avenues of investigation into the causes, control, and subsequent prevention of cancer. By drawing together related information published currently in a diverse range of biological and medical journals, it has a multidisciplinary and multinational approach.
The scope of the journal includes: variation in cancer distribution within and between populations; factors associated with cancer risk; preventive and therapeutic interventions on a population scale; economic, demographic, and health-policy implications of cancer; and related methodological issues.
The emphasis is on speed of publication. The journal will normally publish within 30 to 60 days of acceptance of manuscripts.
Cancer Causes & Control publishes Original Articles, Reviews, Commentaries, Opinions, Short Communications and Letters to the Editor which will have direct relevance to researchers and practitioners working in epidemiology, medical statistics, cancer biology, health education, medical economics and related fields. The journal also contains significant information for government agencies concerned with cancer research, control and policy.
