The contribution reports on a pre-test pilot study, based on the single-case method (N>1 and N=1 one by one), aimed to investigate whether resilience factors regards self-narrative representation, self-esteem and their likely correlations in child suffering from tumour.
The administration of specific investigation instruments (TMA - multidimensional self-esteem test, and a narrative inquiry framed on purpose) has been planned by the survey. The participating subjects set up a group of 7 children, 10 year olds, suffering from tumour. The individuation of such subjects has been carried out in terms of some "drawing variables" such as the existence of tumour, its diagnosis (12 months before commencing the research), the continuity of medical treatment and the lack of terminal stage of disease.
The study has highlighted the lack of a statistically remarkable impairment of self-narrative and self-esteem in children suffering from tumour belonging to the reference group. These levels of self-narrative and self-esteem are possible resilience factors in children suffering from tumour.
The acquired data about specific resilience elements in child suffering from tumor directs to research with national and international sample.
本贡献报告基于单病例法（N>1和N = 1逐一进行）的一项预测试试点研究，旨在调查患有肿瘤的儿童的复原力因素是否涉及自我叙事表征、自尊及其可能的相关性。
调查计划采用特定的调查工具（TMA - 多维自尊测试，以及专门构建的叙事探究）。参与研究的对象为一组7名10岁患肿瘤儿童。这些对象的选定依据一些“绘图变量”，如肿瘤的存在、诊断情况（研究开始前12个月）、治疗的连续性以及无疾病终末期。
研究突出表明，参考组中患肿瘤儿童的自我叙事和自尊在统计学上没有显著受损。这些自我叙事和自尊水平可能是患肿瘤儿童的复原力因素。
所获得的关于患肿瘤儿童特定复原力要素的数据，为在国内和国际样本中开展研究指明了方向。
