Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the difference between body image and self-esteem scores during and at the end of the medical. Hypothesis: body image and self-esteem changes during the oncological treatments.


Clinical Trial Description

Body image and self-esteem represent important variables linked to adolescents' development. These two variables are the most affected in patients with the oncological disease. The consequences of a visible difference may have a significant impact on behaviour and mood, causing relevant impairments in individuals well-being and quality of life. Among different personal attributes, self-esteem may be the one with the greatest impact on body image (Cash, 2002). Indeed previous studies have investigated different features of body image and self-esteem (Webster & Tiggemann, 2003), showing that they have a significant influence on the overall well-being (Cash & Fleming, 2002), and that those aspects are also significantly influenced by age and gender. The patients are evaluated at T0 (within the first week of hospitalization after diagnosis), T1 (within 3 months after diagnosis), T2 (within 6 months after diagnosis), T3 (within 12 months after diagnosis, at the end of cancer treatment), according to a follow-up study design. Data analysis: r Pearson's correlation, repeated measure ANOVA and regression analysis will be carried out to investigate relations between studied variables and eventual changes over time. Analyses are performed using SPSS software (Chicago, S. P. S. S. SPSS Inc; 2008. SPSS Statistics, 17.) ;
