Mindfulness and Basic Hope in Patients with Pelvic Cancer: Examining Illness Acceptance and Fear of Recurrence Within a Multiple Mediation Model
Overview
This study examines the relationship between mindfulness, illness acceptance, fear of recurrence, and basic hope among 273 adult patients undergoing treatment for pelvic cancer. Using a serial multiple mediation model based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, the authors found that illness acceptance significantly mediates the link between mindfulness and basic hope, with fear of recurrence acting as a sequential mediator. The resource is intended for researchers or clinicians interested in psychological mechanisms within oncology settings.
