无病乳腺癌幸存者（n = 180）在诊断后10年接受了采访。他们被问及有关癌症的持久影响的问题。绝大多数人都发现了积极的影响。通过（1）比较幸存者与重要他人的反应和（2）比较幸存者的报告与他们在相关维度上的地位来研究成长报告的有效性。结果显示，显着的其他人，但一些相关方面的佐证。有更多的证据证明，乳腺癌的成本比收益高。幸存者比其他重要的人报告了更多的好处。几乎没有证据表明，与其他人相比，当重要的另一半是配偶时，佐证会更大。研究应继续探索增长报告的有效性和意义。
Disease-free breast cancer survivors (n = 180) were interviewed 10 years after diagnosis. They were asked questions about the lasting effects of cancer. The vast majority identified positive effects. The validity of growth reports was investigated by: (1) comparing survivors’ to significant others’ responses and (2) comparing survivors’ reports to their standing on relevant dimensions. Results revealed little corroboration by significant others but some corroboration by relevant dimensions. There was greater corroboration for the costs than the benefits of breast cancer. Survivors reported more benefits than significant others. There was little evidence that corroboration was greater when the significant other was a spouse compared to someone else. Research should continue to explore the validity and meaning of growth reports.
