PURPOSE: The study was done to identify the relationship of symptoms of stress, cancer prevention behavior, the quality of life in women, and the factors influencing the quality of life.
METHOD: The subjects of this study were 210 married women. They were living in Gyeonggi Province and Busan Metropolitan City. Symptoms of stress were measured by the Park´s Stress Scale. Cancer preventive behavior was measured by Suh´s Korean scale, and Smith Kline Beecham Quality of life´ Scale by Dunbar. Data was analyzed with the SPSS program by ANOVA, Pearson´s correlation, and Multiple Regression Analysis.
RESULT: The higher scores of physical stress correlated with lower practice scores of cancer prevention behavior. Psychological and physical stress revealed negative correlations among sub-items of the QOL such as competence, psychological well-being, stability, physical well-being and activity. Multiple regression analysis revealed that the predictor of quality of life in the women was stress. A combination of symptoms of stress and cancer prevention behaviors accounted for 35.3% of the variance in the quality of life in the women.
CONCLUSION: The most important factor influencing the quality of life of women was stress. Thus the study´s findings can be useful in directing a comprehensive nursing care plan to improve the QOL of women.
