Abstract

Objective: Young adults with cancer are at a heightened risk for experiencing identity distress, with adverse consequence on their satisfaction with life (SwL). This study examines the contributions of two resources thought to mitigate identity distress: parental warmth and narrative creativity.

Methods: 164 young adults divided into three groups: (a) control group (no history of life-threatening medical illness); (b) recovered group, and (c) cancer group (currently in treatment) completed measures of SwL, identity distress, parental warmth, and narrative creativity.

Findings: The cancer group was associated with higher identity distress and there was a strong contribution of identity distress in decreased SwL across groups. Narrative creativity had a significant, direct effect on reduced identity distress, indirectly increasing SwL across groups.

Implications for psychosocial providers: These findings highlight the potential of creativity to decrease identity distress and in turn, improve SwL among patients with cancer.

创造性恢复:叙事创造力减轻了患有癌症的年轻人的身份困扰

摘要

目的:患有癌症的年轻人面临身份困扰的风险增加,对他们的生活满意度(SwL)产生不利影响。本研究考察了被认为可以减轻身份困扰的两种资源的贡献:父母的温暖和叙事创造力。

方法: 164 名年轻人分为三组:(a)对照组(无危及生命的疾病史);(b)康复组和 (c)癌症组(目前正在治疗)完成了 SwL、身份痛苦、父母温暖和叙事创造力的测量。

结果:癌症组与较高的身份困扰相关,并且身份困扰对各组 SwL 降低有很大贡献。叙事创造力对减少身份困扰有显着的直接影响,间接增加了跨群体的 SwL。

对社会心理提供者的影响这些发现强调了创造力在减少身份困扰方面的潜力,进而改善癌症患者的 SwL。
