MethodsA total of 106 cancer patients who received radioactive 125Ⅰ seed implantation were selected according to the convenience sampling method.The general data of the patients were collected and the psychological resilience level were evaluated by Connor Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC).Based on he family adaptability and cohesion scale Ⅱchinese version (FACESIICV) and loneliness scale of university of california at los angeles (UCLA).
ResultsThe score of loneliness scale, psychological resilience scale and family adaptability and cohesion scale of the radioactive 125Ⅰ seed implanted cancer patients were (40.01±8.63), (61.79±14.54) and (116.32±18.80) points, respectively.There were statistically significant differences in loneliness scores among different genders, occupations, education level and per capita monthly income of family (P < 0.01), statistically significant differences were observed in psychological resilience scores and family adaptability and cohesion scale scores among different genders and per capita monthly income of family (P < 0.01).There was a significant negative correlation between loneliness scale score and psychological resilience scale score (r=-0.912, P < 0.01) and a significant positive correlation between psychological resilience scale score and family adaptability and cohesion scale score (r=0.884, P < 0.01).Additionally, a significant negative correlation between the scores of loneliness scale and those of family adaptability and cohesion scale (r=-0.907, P < 0.01) were found in the study.Gender, occupation, education level, family per capita monthly income, psychological resilience score, family adaptability and cohesion scores were included in the multiple linear stepby-step regression analysis of the influencing factors of loneliness.The scores of family cohesion, adaptability and per capita monthly income of family were statistically significant (P < 0.01).
