癌症诊断后对控制的感知可能具有心理和身体健康意义。控制结构是认知适应理论的重要组成部分。癌症控制量表反映了这些理论成分，并对543名有乳腺癌病史的妇女进行了管理。进行了验证性因素分析，以评估癌症控制基因的测量因素结构。研究结果支持了癌症控制量表的三因素模型。所有三个维度的信念平均得分表明癌症控制的信心普遍较高。得出的结论是，使用这种癌症控制量表可以提供三个不同的控制维度的充分评估。
Perceptions of control after a cancer diagnosis may have psychological and physical health significance. The control constructs are critical components of the theory of cognitive adaptation. The Cancer Locus of Control scale reflected these theoretical components and was administered to 543 women with a history of breast cancer. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to assess the measurement factor structure of the Cancer Locus of Control. The results supported a three-factor model of the Cancer Locus of Control scale. Mean scores of beliefs in all three dimensions indicated generally high confidence in cancer control. It was concluded that use of this Cancer Locus of Control scale can provide adequate assessment of the three distinct control dimensions.
