Abstract

This study was undertaken to investigate the factors that influence post-traumatic growth in patients with breast cancer. The study subjects were 100 outpatients with breast cancer who visited the outpatient clinic of a university hospital. The instruments used for this study were Korean Post-traumatic Inventory (K-PTGI), Modified Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey (mMOS-SS), Self-Efficacy Scale for Self-Management of Breast Cancer (SESSM-B) and Cancer Coping Questionnaire (CCQ). The data were analyzed by t-test, ANOVA, Pearson-correlation coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 21.0. The mean score of post-traumatic growth was $3.4{\pm}0.9$ out of 5. Post traumatic growth had statistically significant correlation with social support, breast cancer self-management self-efficacy, and coping behavior. In stepwise multiple regression analysis, post-traumatic growth was significantly influenced by therapeutic compliance related self-efficacy and positive reframing coping behavior and it was account for 29% of the total variance. These results suggest that these influencing factors should be considered in developing the nursing intervention to improve the post-traumatic growth in patient with breast cancer.

본 연구는 유방암 환자의 외상 후 성장에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하고자 진행되었으며 자료수집은 인천광역시 내 대학병원 외래를 내원하여 유방암 진단을 받고 치료과정 중에 있는 유방암 환자 100명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구도구는 한국어판 외상 후 성장 척도(K-PTGI), 사회적지지(mMOS-SS), 유방암 자가관리에 대한 자기효능감 척도(SESSM-B)와 대처행동(CCQ) 도구를 사용하였다. 자료의 분석은 t-검정, ANOVA, Pearson 상관분석, 단계적 다중회귀분석을 하였다. 연구결과 외상 후 성장 정도는 5점만점에 평균 3.4(${\pm}0.9$)점이었다. 외상 후 성장은 사회적 지지, 유방암 자가관리에 대한 자기효능감, 대처행동과 통계적으로 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 단계적 다중회귀분석에서, 치료이행 자기효능감과 긍정적 재구조화 대처행동이 유방암환자의 외상 후 성장 영향 요인으로 나타났고, 이들 변수들의 설명력은 29%였다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 유방암환자의 외상 후 성장을 향상시킬 수 있는 간호 중재 개발을 고려할 필요가 있겠다.
