本研究调查了儿童癌症治疗后幸存者的心理社会适应、生活质量和学校经历。一种多方法、多来源的方法检查了幸存者对癌症的适应以及与癌症治疗的教育和社会心理后遗症有关的观点。从51名8至17岁的幸存者中收集数据,定量评估显示儿童在学业能力、情绪稳定性和社会能力方面存在焦虑和心理社会适应困难。定性结果显示,留级的学生特别关注他们的学习成绩和同伴关系。据报道,在家教育在学业上是不充分的,在社会上是孤立的。这些结果表明,教育工作者需要特定的知识和技能来成功地评估和教育患有癌症的学生。
This study investigated the psychosocial adjustment, quality of life, and school experiences of post treatment survivors of pediatric cancer. A multimethod, multisource approach examined survivors' adjustments to cancer and views related to educational and psychosocial sequelae of cancer treatment. Data were collected from 51 survivors, 8 to 17 years old Quantitative assessments revealed anxiety in children and difficulties in psychosocial adjustment in the areas of scholastic competence, emotional stability, and social competence. Qualitative results revealed that students who repeated a grade were particularly concerned with their academic performance and peer relationships. Homebound instruction was reported to he academically inadequate and socially isolating. These results suggest that educators need specific knowledge and skills to successfully assess and teach students who have cancer.
