The present study focuses on social comparison processes among cancer patients. The sample consisted of 60 (ex-) cancer patients who participated in a course "coping with cancer". This study examined several aspects of social comparison: the need for comparison, the preferred direction of comparison and the influence of mode (information or contact seeking) and dimension (illness severity or coping) of social comparison as well as indicators of low well-being. The results show that the need for comparison is particularly enhanced among those who evaluate their own health negatively. In addition, the results show that patients prefer to receive information about others who are better off, but also want contact with others who are better off. In addition, they are specifically interested in receiving information about others who are coping better. Practical implications are discussed.
本研究聚焦于癌症患者之间的社会比较过程。样本由60名参与“应对癌症”课程的（前）癌症患者组成。本研究考察了社会比较的几个方面：比较的需求、比较的偏好方向以及社会比较的方式（寻求信息或寻求接触）和维度（疾病严重程度或应对方式）的影响以及幸福感较低的指标。结果表明，那些对自身健康评价负面的人对比较的需求尤其强烈。此外，结果表明患者更倾向于接收关于状况更好的其他人的信息，但也希望与状况更好的其他人接触。此外，他们特别有兴趣接收关于应对得更好的其他人的信息。文中讨论了实际意义。
