RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Resilience is the ability to cope and function despite adversity, such as a cancer diagnosis, and has been conceptualized as the other end of a distress-resilience continuum. There are known associations among resilience, distress, depression, and anxiety-yet the nature of the associations is not well characterized. Less is known about the relationship among these variables for caregivers. We examined these associations in a convenience sample from a clinical setting with these hypotheses: (a) patients and nondyadic caregivers will report elevated, comparable levels of distress, depression, and anxiety, and (b) resilience will moderate the effect of distress on depression and anxiety. METHOD: Participants were patients with a cancer diagnosis (n = 328) and nondyadic caregivers (n = 169). Participants completed a demographic/clinical questionnaire and self-report measures (National Comprehensive Cancer Network Distress Thermometer, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System anxiety and depression measures, and Brief Resilience Scale). The statistical plan for this cross-sectional study included moderation analyses and various tests of association. RESULTS: Patients and caregivers reported comparable levels of resilience and elevated distress; patients exhibited more severe depression and anxiety. There was no evidence for a moderating effect of resilience. For both groups, the model of distress predicting depression/anxiety exhibited improved fit when including resilience. Distress and resilience share variance in the prediction of depression/anxiety among patients. CONCLUSIONS: Distress, depression, and anxiety are common in patients with cancer but also in cancer caregivers. Resilience appears to be an important variable to consider alongside distress and may enhance our understanding of the relationships among distress and depression/anxiety, especially for individuals with cancer.
