| description | This study tested the hypothesis that counseling of newly diagnosed cancer patients by former cancer patients will increase the use of coping strategies and reduce psychological stress beyond what can be accomplished by just counseling from professional staff. Thirty-two newly diagnosed patients in a gynecologic oncology service were subjects in this study. All subjects received supportive services from professionals assigned to the service. Control group patients received just the professional support program, while the experimental group patients received professional support plus additional counseling by former cancer patients that emphasized four coping strategies characteristic of patients who have adapted well to cancer. Results 6 and 12 weeks after entering the study showed no statistically significant differences in emotional status between experimental and control groups and only one significant difference in coping behaviors that was opposite to what was predicted. The findings do not support the hypothesis. |
