The psychological distress of men with underage children, whose female partners have cancer, was examined using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The sample (N=141) was compared with the partners who have cancer and a comparison group of men from the general population (N=154). The male partners of cancer patients were psychological strongly distressed. About half of the partners showed increased scores in anxiety and one third of the partners had a high level of depression. There was a high correlation within the couple. The male partners of cancer patients were significantly more distressed than the comparison group of men with underage children from the general population. It is very important to assess psychosocial support needs of partners of cancer patients and to provide adequate options of possible psychosocial treatment.
使用医院焦虑抑郁量表（HADS）对未成年子女的母亲患有癌症的男性的心理困扰进行了调查。将样本（N = 141）与患癌伴侣以及来自普通人群的男性对照组（N = 154）进行了比较。癌症患者的男性伴侣存在严重的心理困扰。约一半的伴侣焦虑得分升高，三分之一的伴侣有高度抑郁。夫妻之间存在高度相关性。癌症患者的男性伴侣比来自普通人群的有未成年子女的男性对照组明显更困扰。评估癌症患者伴侣的心理社会支持需求并提供可能的心理社会治疗的适当选择非常重要。
