癌症患者在诊断和治疗过程中会经历积极和不良的后果。这里报告的研究调查了这种经历的长期影响。230名早期乳腺癌患者在术后一年内完成了一系列受益发现项目沿着和幸福感测量。4至7年后，其中96人再次完成了福祉措施。控制最初的痛苦和抑郁，该样本中的最初益处发现预测随访时的痛苦和抑郁程度较低。
Cancer patients experience positive as well as adverse consequences from diagnosis and treatment. The study reported here examined longer term reverberations of such experiences. A set of benefit-finding items along with measures of well-being were completed by 230 early-stage breast cancer patients in the year postsurgery. Four to 7 years later, 96 of them again completed measures of well-being. Controlling for initial distress and depression, initial benefit finding in this sample predicted lower distress and depression at follow-up.
