Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of psychosocial rehabilitation of tumors, and more particularly relates to an evaluation method and system for factors affecting the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work. BACKGROUND
[0002] Although scholars have paid attention to how cancer patients adapt to returning to work, most studies focus on the adaptation experience and influencing factors of cancer patients at a certain specific time point or transition stage before, during and after returning to work, and no study has comprehensively evaluated and explained the entire process from diagnosis to stable work state of cancer patients. Existing domestic research shows that the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work is at a medium or low level and needs to be improved. Therefore, identifying the predictors of cancer patients' return-to-work adaptability is of great significance for providing personalized interventions for cancer patients and achieving high-level return-to-work adaptability of cancer patients. However, there is currently no relevant research.
[0003] Existing surveys show that the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work is affected by many factors, such as religious beliefs, cancer types, self-efficacy, etc., but the results of the current investigation differ due to differences in evaluation tools, statistical methods, etc., and further investigation is needed. It is understood that the guidance of clinical medical staff for cancer patients returning to work is mainly based on personal experience, and there is a lack of effective evaluation tools and practical guidelines.
[0004] According to the reports of related research, the factors affecting the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work include: sociodemographic factors (such as marital status, religious beliefs, age, etc.), disease-related factors (such as surgical plan, complications, etc.), occupation-related factors (such as job nature, work experience, etc.), mental and psychological factors (such as psychological resilience, self-efficacy, etc.), social resource factors (such as family adaptation and intimacy, social support, etc.). However, the importance of each factor on the adaptability of returning to work is not clear, and the research results differ, which needs to be verified; existing research has not focused on the impact of employment-related factors (such as work and health cognition, work and emotional coping factors), unit support, peer support, and policies on the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work. The specific influencing factors are shown in Table 1.
[0005] Table 1 Summary of factors affecting the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work
[0006]
[0007] The concept of return-to-work adaptability is relatively new, and most of the research is domestic. Although current status surveys on return-to-work adaptability of cancer patients mostly use multiple regression analysis to identify some influencing factors, this method may ignore the complex nonlinear relationships and potential characteristics of the data, and the research results do not involve the influence of unit support on return-to-work adaptability. Therefore, comprehensively identifying the factors affecting the return-to-work adaptability of cancer patients is conducive to assisting medical staff to efficiently evaluate and predict the return-to-work adaptability level of cancer patients and its dominant influencing factors, and to provide a scientific basis for developing personalized intervention and support strategies.

[0041] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application.
[0042] Unless otherwise defined, technical terms or scientific terms used herein should be understood as having the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present application belongs.
[0043] Embodiment 1
[0044] As Figures 1-2 The evaluation method for the adaptability influencing factors of cancer patients returning to work, as shown in Tables 2-5, comprises the following steps:
[0045] Pilot test of the questionnaire;
[0046] Pre-test;
[0047] Item analysis;
[0048] Exploratory factor analysis;
[0049] Reliability and content validity analysis;
[0050] Confirmatory factor analysis;
[0051] Average variance extraction and composite validity.
[0052] According to the item response theory (Item Response Theory) and the classical measurement theory (Classical Test Theory) and the guidance of the questionnaire item screening. The screening basis is:
[0053] ①Critical ratio method: by sorting the questionnaire data according to the total score, setting the data of the top 27% and the bottom 27% as the high score group and the low score group respectively, calculating the average score of each item of the two groups, and using independent sample t test for comparison. Item deletion standard: t < 3.00; there is no statistical significance between the two groups (P > 0.05).
[0054] ②Correlation coefficient method: According to the dimension framework of the questionnaire, the correlation coefficient (r) between the item score and the dimension to which it belongs is calculated to evaluate the representativeness and independence of the item. When r < 0.40 or the statistical test difference does not reach a significant level (P > 0.05), the item is considered for deletion. ③Cronbach's alpha coefficient method: Cronbach's alpha coefficient (referred to as alpha coefficient) reflects the correlation between items. If the coefficient increases after deleting an item, the item is considered for deletion. Corrected item-total correlation (CITC), which is the Pearson correlation coefficient between the item score and the total score of the questionnaire after deleting the item. If CITC < 0.30, the corresponding item is recommended for deletion.
[0055] Exploratory factor analysis (EFA): KMO and Bartlett test are used to determine whether the data is suitable for factor analysis. When KMO > 0.70 and Bartlett's sphericity test shows P < 0.05, EFA can be performed. Based on theoretical basis and professional knowledge, public factors are extracted, and 10 public factors are set based on previous theoretical basis. When the loading amount of the item belonging to the public factor is small (factor loading < 0.40), or its factor loading is induced into 2 or more factors and the loading size is similar (difference < 0.20), the item is recommended for deletion.
[0056] Reliability analysis: including internal consistency test, split-half reliability and test-retest reliability. Among them, internal consistency test: Cronbach's alpha coefficient is used to calculate the homogeneity between the total questionnaire and each index. When the alpha coefficient > 0.500, it indicates that the internal consistency of the questionnaire is good; when the alpha coefficient > 0.700, it indicates that the reliability of the questionnaire is high. Split-half reliability, also known as half reliability, is to divide the items into odd and even parts according to the order of the questions, and to test the reliability of the items by calculating the correlation coefficient of the total scores of the odd and even parts. When the odd and even numbers are different, the Spearman-Brown unequal length coefficient is used, otherwise the Spearman-Brown equal length coefficient is selected. The higher the value, the higher the reliability of the questionnaire. Test-retest reliability: used to evaluate the stability of the questionnaire, using Pearson correlation analysis test. Randomly select 30 subjects, calculate the correlation degree of the questionnaire evaluation results before and after 4-7 days interval. The time interval takes into account the possible result bias caused by short-term review of cancer patients, hospitalization time and memory of the first evaluation. When it is ≥ 0.700, it indicates that the stability of the questionnaire is high.
[0057] Content validity analysis: Eight experts were selected to conduct content validity (Content Validity Index, CVI) analysis to evaluate the degree of conformity between questionnaire items and expected measurement content, including scale-level CVI (S-CVI) and item-level CVI (I-CVI). When I-CVI ≥ 0.700 and S-CVI ≥ 0.800, the content of the questionnaire can be accepted. I-CVI = (the number of experts scoring 4 or 5) / the total number of experts; S-CVI = (the number of items scored 4 or 5) / the total number of items.
[0058] Confirmatory factor analysis: Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to evaluate the relationship between known latent variables and corresponding items to verify the structure fitting degree of the questionnaire. KMO test and Bartlett's sphericity test were used to determine whether factor analysis could be performed. CFA test was conducted, and the fitting indicators were > 0.400, R 2 > 0.300
[15] , and also met the following conditions: (1) Chi-square degrees of freedom ratio (χ 2 / df): the value range was 0-5, and if it was less than 3.000, it indicated that the overall fitting degree of the model was good. (2) Comparative fit index (CFI): if CFI > 0.850, the model fitting degree was considered acceptable. (3) Tucker-Lewis index (TLI): if TLI > 0.850, the model fitting was considered to be within the acceptable range. (4) Root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA): if RMSEA < 0.080, it indicated that the fitting of the structure model was ideal. (5) Standardized Root Mean Square Residual (SRMR): if SRMR < 0.050, it indicated that the model fitting was ideal. Based on CFA, the average variance extraction (AVE) and composite reliability (CR) of each factor of the questionnaire were calculated to test the convergent validity of the questionnaire. When AVE > 0.500 and CR > 0.700, it indicated that the convergent validity of the questionnaire structure was good.
[0059] The application discloses an evaluation system for factors affecting the adaptability of cancer patients returning to work, and comprises a questionnaire pretest module, a pretest module, an item analysis module, an exploratory factor analysis module, a reliability and content validity analysis module, a confirmatory factor analysis module and an average variance extraction and combined validity module.
[0060] The questionnaire pretest module is used for initiating a random questionnaire, carrying out literature review and evaluating tools.
[0061] The pretest module is used for expert consultation and pilot investigation.
[0062] The item analysis module is used for sorting questionnaire data according to total scores, setting data of the top 27% and the bottom 27% of the total scores as high-score groups and low-score groups respectively, calculating average scores of items of the two groups, comparing the average scores by using independent sample t-test and judging whether the items should be deleted.
[0063] The exploratory factor analysis module is used for determining whether data is suitable for factor analysis by KMO and Bartlett tests.
[0064] The reliability and content validity analysis module is used for analyzing reliability and evaluating the degree of conformity between questionnaire items and expected measurement content.
[0065] The confirmatory factor analysis module is used for evaluating the relationship between known latent variables and corresponding items and verifying the structure goodness of the questionnaire.
[0066] The average variance extraction and combined validity module is used for calculating average variance extraction of each factor of the questionnaire to test the convergent validity of the questionnaire.
[0067] There are totally 9 dimensions and 34 items.
[0068] The micro level includes four dimensions of health cognition, emotional coping, work cognition and work coping, and totally 15 items. Cancer patients will face more problems in physical, psychological and work ability reconstruction, and therefore, identifying the health cognition, emotional coping, work cognition and work coping of cancer patients is important for building personalized adaptive intervention schemes in the future.
[0069] The meso level includes three dimensions of unit support, family support and economic burden, and totally 12 items. Social support can improve the psychological and social adaptation and self-efficacy of cancer patients, and the social support provided by units, families and peers is crucial for the return-to-work adaptation of the cancer patients.
[0070] The macro level includes two dimensions of social atmosphere and policy support, and totally 7 items. Employment, economy, medical insurance and other welfare guarantees can provide professional safety for cancer patients and encourage them to participate in work.
[0071] The questionnaire distribution, follow-up and recovery are responsible for the members of the team who have been trained. Before the survey, the electronic medical records of the patients should be reviewed to screen the eligible subjects and communicate with the responsible doctors and nurses to preliminarily assess their physical and mental health status. Before the questionnaire distribution, the investigators should explain the purpose and method of the survey to the subjects and obtain their informed consent. The questionnaire should be filled out independently by the subjects. If necessary, the investigators can objectively restate the items and record the first choice of the subjects to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the data. The support of the relevant departments should be obtained before the survey. In order to minimize errors, all investigators should receive at least two training sessions on the survey procedures before they can participate in the actual survey work. The investigators should conduct one-on-one face-to-face communication with the subjects to guide them in filling out the questionnaire. The investigators should check the recovered questionnaires and give the subjects the corresponding rewards. The questionnaires should be sorted out in a timely manner to eliminate invalid or unqualified questionnaires and ensure the quality of the data. Double cross-verification is used for data entry. During the data analysis stage, missing values should be handled carefully, the statistical methods and analysis should be selected correctly according to the research purpose, and strong support should be provided for the results and conclusions.

[0088] The results of the 43-item questionnaire showed that KMO=0.86, Bartlett's sphericity test χ 2 / df=8863.857 / 903 and P<0.001, suggesting that factor analysis can be performed. CFA test was carried out, as shown in Table 2, first, 5 items (GY20, GY22, DZ46, DZ19, DZ18) with factor load less than 0.400 and R 2 <0.300 were removed, and then 4 items (GY21, GY35, GY49, DZ48) with R 2 <0.300 were removed.
[0089] The model fitting index χ 2 / df<3.000; RMSEA=0.067, SRMR=0.052; CFI=0.914, TLI=0.902, all within the acceptable range. The item factor load in the 9 common factors was 0.738-0.963. The AVE of each factor of the model was 0.615-0.792 and was greater than the correlation coefficient with other factors, indicating that, on average, the degree of explanation of each latent factor to its related observation value variance was greater than that of other factors, and the correlation coefficient between factors was greater than that between other factors, providing empirical evidence with good discriminant validity. This result shows that the questionnaire itself has good discriminant validity. CR was 0.834-0.938, and the value was greater than 0.70, indicating that the questionnaire had good convergent validity. This high CR indicates that the observation indicators within each factor have high consistency in measuring the latent construct. For details, see Table 3. The total Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.923, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient of each dimension ranged from 0.833 to 0.936.
[0090] The final questionnaire has high reliability and validity, good language universality and item understandability, and can provide a practical tool for clinical and vocational rehabilitation and lay the foundation for future development of personalized vocational rehabilitation plans.
