Abstract:

The aim of this study was to compare the Psychological Problems in Adolescent Girls with and without Breast Cancer Mothers. This study was a comparative research. The statistical population consisted of all adolescent girls between the ages of 13 to 18 years who referred to the oncology ward of Golestan Hospital of Ahvaz for 6 months as a companion mother with cancer and all adolescent girls between 13 to 18 years Ahvaz city without cancer mother. Using convenience sampling, 57 adolescent girls were identified for the group with the cancer parent (mean age 16/31) and 57 for the without cancer parent group (mean age 16.02). In order to collect information, NOPQ (Robichuad & Dogus, 2005), Hopelessness Scale (Beck & et al., 1974) and Pecieved Stress Scale (Chohen et al., 1983) was used. The results of analysis of variance indicated that there was a significant difference between negative orientation problem and hopelessness between two groups (p<0.05) that is girls with cancer mother had high Negative Orientation to Problem Questionnaire and hopeless than girls without cancer mother but in perceived stress, there was no significant difference between two groups of adolescent girls with and without cancer parents (p = 0.9). The results of this study suggest that psychological factors in adolescent girls with a parent with cancer should be addressed.
