- 소개/요약Receiving a diagnosis of lung cancer has a major impact. Patients with lung cancer develop severe physical symptoms, undergo radical treatment and face a poor prognosis. As lung cancer is strongly associated with smoking, patients often feel stigmatized and tend to blame themselves and are blamed by others for developing cancer (Chapple et al. 2004; Else-Quest et al. 2009; Milbury et al. 2012), which has a negative impact on their wellbeing. In fact, lung cancer patients are more likely to meet the threshold of psychological distress (23–63 %) than are patients with other types of cancer (Carlson et al. 2004; Gao et al. 2010; Linden et al. 2012). Not only patients but also their spouses can be heavily affected by the lung cancer diagnosis. Factors contributing to heightened distress include dealing with practical tasks, such as coordinating the patient’s medical care, managing the patient’s emotional reactions to the illness and coping with an uncertain future (Mosher et al. 2013). In fact, the rates of distress among spouses tend to be similar to those of lung cancer patients (Mosher et al. 2013; Ostlund et al. 2010), although in general, females report the highest rates of distress irrespective of being patient or spouse (Hagedoorn et al. 2008).
