ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study was to examine the relationship between mental health status and suicidal thinking among cancer patients.METHODS:
The data set of the 4th Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey (2009) was used and 230 subjects with cancers were included in the present study. Using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program, data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, chi2 test and logistic regression analysis.RESULTS:
About one-third of subjects had stress, symptoms of depression and suicidal thinking. Female had more suicidal thinking than male (chi2=5.44, p=.020). In addition, subjects with high income level had more thinking about suicide compared with those in low income level (chi2=7.54, p=.023). There was a significant difference in suicidal thinking according to the educational levels (chi2=13.25, p=.004). In the logistic regression analysis, it was indicated that gender, depression and stress were significant predictors on suicidal thinking, accounting for 26.7~38.1%.CONCLUSION:
