Developmental Foundations of Psychosocial Interventions in Pediatric Oncology: A Lifespan Framework for Resilience
Overview
This review examines how developmentally tailored psychosocial interventions, such as cognitive-behavioral techniques and therapeutic play, impact emotional regulation and school adjustment in children with cancer. The authors analyze literature from 2000 to 2024 to demonstrate that interventions involving family and peers yield consistent positive outcomes across different age groups and cancer types. The resource highlights the importance of integrating developmental models into clinical practice while noting limitations in current research generalizability.
