Patients with hematological tumors frequently experience lower life satisfaction, highlighting the need to identify factors that can increase well-being. This research investigated the influence of family support on the life satisfaction of hematologic cancer patients, considering the mediating role of hope.
In this cross-sectional study, 322 patients with hematologic tumors completed a series of questionnaires on demographic information, family support, the hope index, and life satisfaction. A structural equation model is established to evaluate the mediating effect between variables.
The structural equation model fits well. Family support significantly positively predicted hope and life satisfaction (β = 0.54, p < 0.001; β = 0.19, p < 0.01), and hope significantly positively predicted life satisfaction (β = 0.45, p < 0.001).
A significant positive correlation was observed between the degree of family support and life satisfaction among patients with hematological tumors. Moreover, hope serves as a partial mediator in the connection between life satisfaction and family support for such patients, suggesting that family support indirectly impacts life satisfaction by nurturing hope.
血液系统肿瘤患者的生活满意度常常较低,这凸显了识别能够提高幸福感的因素的必要性。本研究探讨了家庭支持对血液系统癌症患者生活满意度的影响,并考虑了希望的中介作用。
在这项横断面研究中,322例血液系统肿瘤患者完成了一系列关于人口统计学信息、家庭支持、希望指数和生活满意度的问卷调查。建立结构方程模型以评估变量之间的中介效应。
结构方程模型拟合良好。家庭支持对希望和生活满意度有显著的正向预测作用(β = 0.54,p < 0.001;β = 0.19,p < 0.01),希望对生活满意度有显著的正向预测作用(β = 0.45,p < 0.001)。
血液系统肿瘤患者的家庭支持程度与生活满意度之间存在显著的正相关。此外,希望在这类患者的生活满意度与家庭支持之间的联系中起部分中介作用,这表明家庭支持通过培养希望间接影响生活满意度。
