Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the current status of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery and to analyze their influencing factors.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 153 patients who underwent surgery at the Gastrointestinal Tumor Center of Peking University Cancer Hospital as study subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Chinese version of Attitude Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF) , Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, and General Self-Efficacy Scale were used to conduct the survey. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help and coping styles and self-efficacy in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. Multiple linear regression was used to explore the factors influencing attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. A total of 153 questionnaires were distributed and 149 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 97.39% (149/153) .Results:The total ATSPPH-SF score of 149 patients with gastrointestinal tumor surgery was [16.00 (13.00, 19.00) ]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that work status, seeking professional psychological help, and coping styles were the influencing factors on the attitude toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The level of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery is low and is influenced by a number of factors. Healthcare professionals can carry out individualized interventions for different patients, enhance absentee patients' disease knowledge, sense of self-worth, and encourage them to carry out professional psychological counseling and establish a positive coping style, so as to increase the initiative of patients to seek professional psychological help.
