Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Many psychological factors play an important role in diagnosis and treatment of cancer. One of the reasons could be due to deficits in emotional processing and affect regulation. These deficits could lead to an inability to verbalize and identify emotions which is known as alexithymia. To this end the objective of the study was to examine the effectiveness of adjuvant psychological therapy in breast cancer in terms of alexithymia (within the intervention group and between the two groups). The study consisted of 20 patients in the intervention and control groups each. They were administered the following scale namely, Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). Results indicated that between the intervention and control groups, on total alexithymia, difficulty describing feelings and externally oriented thinking there was a statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups. On the subscale of difficulty identifying feelings there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. Within the intervention group too, significant differences were found on alexithymia and subscales both, following therapy and at follow up. This study reveals the effectiveness of psychological interventions in those with breast cancer. It is imperative that psychological care is the need of the hour in oncology settings.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
