Comparison of social and social exchange styles among patients with Gastrointestinal and cardiac cancer and normal group

In the present study, the comparison of the sociological effects of behavior and social exchange style in cancer and heart patients with normal individuals was compared.

The research community included cancer patients who had visited the offices of oncologists and cardiologists; 90 people were randomly selected and they were randomly divided into 3 groups of 30. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (one-way analysis of variance and follow-up test) were used. Individuals responded to Liebmann's (2011) and Pan-Socialism (2002) social exchange style questionnaires.

There was no significant difference between the social exchange style of people with heart disease and cancer and normal people. But there is a significant difference between the socialization of people with heart disease and cancer and that of normal people.

By recognizing the characteristics of socialization and its negative effects, and recognizing the desired social exchange style, we can take a step towards the recovery of chronic patients with gastrointestinal cancer and heart patients. Keywords: social exchange style, socialism, gastrointestinal cancer and heart disease.
