The aim of this study was to gather information on the immediate and long-term effects of six sessions of group Progressive Muscle Relaxation with Guided Imagery on the psychological distress of self-referred cancer patients. Patients' psychological distress and coping with cancer were assessed by three self-reports: the Multiple Locus of Control, the Impact of Events Scale (IES), and the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI). Of the 123 patients who started group therapy, 37 dropped out during its course. The 86 patients who completed the intervention showed marked improvement on both BSI and IES, an improvement maintained over the next 6 months in 58 patients who continued assessment through the followup period.
本研究的目的是收集关于六次伴有引导式意象的团体渐进性肌肉松弛训练对自我转诊癌症患者心理困扰的即时和长期影响的信息。通过三份自我报告评估患者的心理困扰和应对癌症的情况：多控制点量表、事件影响量表（IES）和简明症状量表（BSI）。在开始团体治疗的123名患者中，有37名在治疗过程中退出。完成干预的86名患者在BSI和IES上均有显著改善，在接下来的6个月里，58名继续接受随访评估的患者保持了这种改善。
