Few, scalable, evidence-based psychosocial interventions exist for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYAs, 18-39 years old). Using an existing, facilitated, online synchronous chat group-plus-education model (OSG+E), we replaced their educational workbook with an AYA-created film to stimulate an age-specific, emotion-focused group discussion (OSG+V). This randomized proof-of-concept trial compared the two models' content suitability, group processes, and feasibility over 9 months in 34 male and female AYAs with a range of cancers. AYAs rated the OSG + V model more suitable, cohesive, and as having higher levels of important group processes than the OSG+E. A larger randomized trial is feasible for this AYA-appropriate, emotion-focused OSG + V model.
针对青少年和年轻成年癌症幸存者(18-39 岁),目前仅有少数几个可扩展的、基于证据的心理社会干预措施。本研究使用现有的、经促进的在线同步聊天群组加教育模式(OSG+E),用青少年自己创作的电影替代教育手册,以激发特定于年龄的、以情绪为重点的小组讨论(OSG+V)。在 9 个月的时间里,该随机概念验证试验比较了这两种模式在 34 名患有各种癌症的男性和女性青少年和年轻成年癌症幸存者中的内容适宜性、小组过程和可行性。青少年认为 OSG+V 模式更适宜、更具凝聚力,并且具有更高水平的重要小组过程,而 OSG+E 模式则不然。对于这种适合青少年、以情绪为重点的 OSG+V 模式,更大规模的随机试验是可行的。
