| Abstract | Purpose: The aims of the study were firstly to investigate the association between illness perception and psychological distress and secondly determine whether mindfulness affect psychological distress via illness perception and perceived stress in lung cancer patients. Method: Among 300 lung cancer patients participated in this cross-sectional study, 295 patients made valid responses to Distress Thermometer (DT), Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ), Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (B-IPQ), and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) between January and July 2021. The possible pathways of mindfulness affecting psychological distress were analyzed based on the structural equation modelling analysis. Results: A total of 24.4% lung cancer patients had DT >4. Illness perception (β=0.17, p=0.002) and perceived stress (β=0.23, p<0.001) had a direct effect on psychological distress. Mindfulness had a direct effect on illness perception (β=-0.16, p=0.006), and mindfulness indirectly influenced psychological distress (β=-0.04, p=0.009) through affecting illness perception alone or simultaneously affecting both illness perception and perceived stress in lung cancer patients. Conclusions: Lung cancer suffered from varying levels of psychological distress. Mindfulness may alleviate psychological distress by reducing the level of illness perception and perceived stress. We suggest developing comprehensive factor model to clarify potential mechanisms of mindfulness on psychological distress due to very low effect of mindfulness on psychological distress via illness perception and perceived stress. |

It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
