Stress and Activity Management: Group Treatment for Cancer Patients and Spouses.

Heinrich, Richard L.; Schag, Cyndie Coscarelli

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v53 n4 p439-54 Aug 1985

Studied 51 ambulatory patients with commonly occurring cancers and 25 of their spouses to evaluate a group stress and activity management treatment program. Found support for unique effects of the treatment intervention, but also support for improvement in psychosocial adjustment for patients and spouses with the passage of time. (Author/MCF)
