Resilience as a Factor Influencing Psychological Distress Experience in Patients with Neuro-Oncological Disease
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Current Oncology"
DOI: 10.3390/curroncol29120776
Abstract: Cancer causes psychological distress. Approximately one-third of all patients with cancer suffer from distress requiring psycho-oncological treatment. Examining factors contributing to their distress can inform approaches to counteracting them. Among such factors, resilience is considered… read more here.
