摘要: The present investigation sought to determine (1) the impact of a single session stress management/coping intervention (problem-solving training; PST) versus general health counseling (GHC) control condition on breast self-examination (BSE) adherence among relatives newly diagnosed cancer patients, and (2) whether women with heightened perceived risk and/or specific distress at baseline were more likely improve their BSE following PST. participants 510 age 20–75 who had least one first-degree relative cancer. All completed telephone interview, an (PST GHC), 3-month follow-up interview. results revealed 36% overall improvement in adherence, no significant between-group difference (χ2=0.03, p=0.87). logistic regression analysis statistically cancer-specific by treatment interaction (p=0.04). Among received PST, those high levels two times than low distress. There was effect condition. These suggest that family history have may be most benefit from behavioral coping skills promote screening. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
