摘要

病因是最重要的疾病表征维度之一。因果信念及其组成部分与行为或应对策略有关。本研究旨在研究癌症患者产生的癌症原因的类型，评估报告的原因与患者社会人口统计学和医学特征之间的关系，研究原因的共现性，并评估原因归因在与疾病经历相关的不同维度（疾病表征、应对、心理困扰、生活质量）中的潜在作用和影响。方法共纳入237例患者，其中男性63.7%，平均年龄62.07岁。本研究采用自填问卷对237名癌症患者（男性占63.7%，平均年龄62.07岁）进行调查，评估患者的疾病表现、心理调整、心理困扰和生活质量。结果内部原因被过度代表，一半的患者报告至少一种癌症原因归因于两种或三种不同的原因。心理归因与适应能力差（更多的焦虑关注和情绪表征）有关。内部归因与积极应对（战斗精神）有关，可以被视为适应性。结论因果归因研究是了解癌症经历以及因果信念、适应和心理社会利益之间关系的启发式方法。

Cancer patients beliefs about cancer causes

Introduction

Cause is one of the most important illness representation dimensions. The causal beliefs and their components are associated with behavioral or coping strategies. This work aims to study the typology of cancer causes produced by cancer patients, assess the relationship between reported causes and patients’ socio-demographic and medical characteristics, study the co-occurrence of causes, and assess the potential role and impact of cause attributions on different dimensions associated to illness experience (illness representations, coping, psychological distress, quality of life).

Method

A total of 237 patients (63.7% males, mean age 62.07) were enrolled. The survey was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire amongst cancer patients (n = 237, 63.7% males; mean age 62.07) assessed illness representations, mental adjustment of patients, psychological distress, and quality of life.

Results

The internal causes are overrepresented and half patients reporting at least one cause for their cancer attributed causes from two or three different categories. Psychological attribution was associated with a poor adjustment (more anxious preoccupations and emotional representations. Internal attribution is associated with active coping (fighting spirit) and can be seen as adaptive.

Conclusion

The study of causal attribution is a heuristic way to understand the experience of cancer, and the relations between causal beliefs, adaptation, and psychosocial stake.
