The present study examined the role of social support and rumination (deliberate vs. intrusive) in posttraumatic growth (PTG), psychological distress (PD), and psychological well-being (PWB) among women with ovarian cancer. Sixty-seven women who had experienced ovarian cancer were recruited through social media and cancer-related websites, and completed an online survey. Contrary to hypotheses, results indicated that social support was not predictive of PTG, and the mediation of rumination was not significant in the regression of social support on PTG. Social support was, however, positively correlated with the Relating to Others domain of PTG. Deliberate rumination was positively predictive of PTG, and intrusive rumination was positively predictive of PD and negatively predictive of PWB. Social support was negatively predictive of PD, and positively predictive of PWB. Results are discussed with reference to clinical implications and future research needed in understanding the ovarian cancer experience.
本研究考察了社会支持和沉思（有意沉思与侵入性沉思）在卵巢癌女性创伤后成长（PTG）、心理困扰（PD）和心理健康（PWB）中的作用。通过社交媒体和癌症相关网站招募了67名经历过卵巢癌的女性，并让她们完成了一项在线调查。与假设相反，结果表明社会支持并不能预测PTG，并且沉思在社会支持对PTG的回归中没有显著的中介作用。然而，社会支持与PTG的“与他人关系”领域呈正相关。有意沉思对PTG有正向预测作用，侵入性沉思对PD有正向预测作用，对PWB有负向预测作用。社会支持对PD有负向预测作用，对PWB有正向预测作用。结合临床意义和理解卵巢癌经历所需的未来研究对结果进行了讨论。
