Abstract: This study evaluates how patterns of psychosocial referral of patients with elevated distress differ in a ‘systematic screening for distress’ condition versus a ‘usual practice’ condition in ambulatory oncology practice.
Methods: The psychosocial referral process in a 2-week usual practice (N=278) condition was compared with a 2-week ‘using the Distress Barometer as a screening instrument’ (N = 304) condition in an outpatient clinic with seven consulting oncologists.

Previous research suggests that message content, self-disclosure, and emotional expression may be central to this process. The purpose of this study was to identify linguistic and qualitative character- istics of participants’ messages that predict how other participants respond in an asynchronous dis- cussion board for cancer-related distress.

Het doel van onze studie was om na te gaan hoe de oudere kankerpatiënt het slechtnieuwsgesprek op emotioneel gebied beleeft en anderzijds welke situationele factoren een invloed kunnen hebben op hun ervaring.
Het onderzoek liep over een periode van 10 maanden waarin 30 palliatieve kankerpatiënten een zelf samengestelde vragenlijst (18 items) aangeboden kregen tijdens opname in het ziekenhuis. De gemiddelde leeftijd was 78.7 jaar (SD = 7.23) en 58% van de patiënten waren mannen.
