The participants' mean age was 43.14 +/- 9.06, 80.3% were married, 40.9% had a university degree, 61.6% were unemployed, and 72.4% reported a moderate economic status. No significant correlation was found between PTG and psychological resilience, while a moderate and positive correlation was observed between PTG and perceived social support. A weak and positive correlation was also detected between perceived social support and psychological resilience. Professionals working in the field of psycho-oncology and social work can make attempts to increase psychological resilience, perceived social support, and PTG in BC patients.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBreast cancerperceived social supportposttraumatic growthpsychological resiliencePsycho-OncologyArticle39162773835164810.1080/19371918.2024.23168762-s2.0-85185656653Q2WOS:001161274700001N/A
