To explore latent profiles of psychological adaptation and their predictive factors among cancer patients, focusing on the co-occurrence of cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) and post-traumatic growth (PTG).
Key Findings:
Two distinct profiles identified: 'cognitively stable but growth-constricted' (73.1%) and 'post-traumatic growth but cognitively vulnerable' (26.9%).
Heterogeneity in psychological adaptation patterns exists among cancer patients, indicating the need for tailored interventions to enhance quality of life.
Limitations:
Cross-sectional design limits causal inferences.
Sample size may not represent all cancer patient populations.
Conclusion:
Understanding distinct psychological profiles can inform targeted interventions to improve psychological care and overall well-being in cancer patients.
