Relationship between perceived social support and psychological hardiness with family communication patterns and quality of life of oncology patients

Abstract

The direct effect and the total effect of PSS and FCP on QoL were significant (p < .001), but their indirect effect was not significant (p > .05) and the effect of PH on QoL was not significant (p = .96). The Root Mean Squares of Error Approximations (RMSEA), Non-Normed Fit Index (NNFI), Comparative Fit Index (CFI) and Goodness of Fit Index (GFI) were estimated 0.07, 0.97, 0.98 and 0.91, respectively.
