Popis: | Objective: Develop and validate a Checklist of psycho-oncologic issues (LC-Psycho-onco) for oncologic patients in treatment. Method: We included 200 patients at the National Cancer Institute (INCAN). The sample collection was for availability during the period of October 2012 to January 2013. Results: An oblique factor analysis presented a three-factor model with 16 indicators and two reagents. The internal consistency of the global scale showed a satisfactory index (α= 0.811). The Cronbach’s alphas for each subscale were worth 0.753 and 0.507 which explain 43.81% of the variance. The validity through the correlation with concurrent measures showed significant results (Pearson’s r = .51 to .68, p Conclusions: The LC-Psycho-onco showed adequate psychometric properties. Being a brief and easy instrument it is useful for both clinical practice and investigation. It provides a guide for planning psychological interventions. |
