چکیده
Receiving Palliative Care Chapter 3 INFLUENCE OF BREAKTHROUGH PAIN PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS AND ADJUSTMENT Overview of Study This phase of the research has a quantitative aspect (reported in Chapter 3-4 as Studies 23) and a qualitative aspect (reported in Chapter 5 as Study 4). This chapter reports a second empirical study among advanced cancer patients who are experiencing pain. Relationships were found between predictors and two dimensions of adjustment (quality of life and coping) in Study 1. Only one outcome variable was able to be explored because of the need to reduce patient burden. Although further exploration of factors influencing quality of life is warranted, the gap in existing literature is greater for coping. Therefore, it was decided that this thesis would continue its focus on relationships with coping and not quality of life.
