A psychological analysis of 125 patients with breast cancer showed that cancer, creating a crisis situation for a woman, leads to changes in a life position transforming her motivational sphere. At the diagnostic stage when the position of despondency is predominant, the major motivation is the desire to survive. At the preoperative stage the desire to preserve health and to survive is prevailing. Postoperatively the motive to preserve health becomes prevalent. At the same time it acquires a new sense of social survival. At longterm stages of treatment this motive of social survival becomes predominant. Psychocorrective work with cancer patients should be based on the principle of active mediation of motivational formation of the person. Proceeding from the principle of "involvement" of the person into meaningful activity, it is necessary to consider the process of psychological rehabilitation as a process of transformation of the objective position of the person, which is determined by a definite social role.
对125名乳腺癌患者的心理分析表明，癌症给女性带来了危机局面，导致其生活立场发生变化，进而改变了她的动机领域。在诊断阶段，当沮丧情绪占主导时，主要动机是求生欲望。在术前阶段，保持健康和求生的欲望占上风。术后，保持健康的动机变得普遍。与此同时，它获得了一种新的社会生存意义。在长期治疗阶段，这种社会生存动机变得占主导地位。对癌症患者的心理矫正工作应基于积极调节个体动机形成的原则。从个体“参与”有意义活动的原则出发，有必要将心理康复过程视为个体客观立场转变的过程，而个体的客观立场是由特定社会角色决定的。
