The general data questionnaire, Chinese version of Meaning in Life Questionnaire (C-MLQ) , Health-related Hardiness Scale (HRHS) and Cognitive Reassessment Strategy Scale were used to investigate them.Results:A total of 315 questionnaires were issued and 302 valid questionnaires were collected.The total score of C-MLQ of 302 patients undergoing radical mastectomy was (31.65±6.71) , the total score of HRHS was (92.59±5.68) and the total score of Cognitive Reassessment Strategy Scale was (16.23±5.04) .The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that cognitive reassessment, postoperative time, health-related hardiness and its control dimension, family monthly income, gender, radiotherapy and chemotherapy were the influencing factors of meaning of life in patients undergoing radical mastectomy ( P<0.05) , which explained 85.8% of the variation in meaning of life.
