Longitudinal Identity Study of Childhood Cancer Survivors

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

The study investigators plan to conduct a longitudinal questionnaire study in adolescents and emerging adults (14-25 years of age at the start of the study) who survived childhood cancer to chart their identity development and broader social functioning. Additionally, the functioning of these survivors will be related to the functioning of their parents and siblings. The investigators shall focus especially on the current experience and impact of the earlier cancer experience. They will investigate to what extent the experience of a life-threatening disease has an effect on the daily life of survivors and over time and how the survivors develop through the course of adolescence and emerging adulthood on the psychosocial level. The formation of an adult identity is a very challenging task during adolescence and the way to adulthood and the fact that these youth had cancer during their childhood may especially complicate this process of identity formation. Furthermore, both parental and sibling functioning will be taken into account, which will allow us to examine inter-generational mechanisms (thus parental functioning that possibly impacts youth functioning and vice versa) and sibling functioning in these families. To investigate the latter, at each timepoint of the longitudinal study a sibling between 14 and 25 years of age at the start of the study will be included (if there is more than one sibling in a family, ideally the sibling who is closest in age will be the one who participates in the study). Moreover, a community sample that is matched on age and sex with the survivor of pediatric cancer will be assessed. This will allow the investigators to make well-founded comparisons regarding identity development and broader psychosocial functioning.
