About

The temporal perspective provides a theory oriented to temporal insights that can shed light on the role of cognitive coping styles in the formation of fear of cancer recurrence. The self-regulatory executive function model elucidates the central role of rumination thinking, catastrophizing cognitive coping styles in the formation of cancer recurrence fear. Therefore, this study will rely on both theoretical models to construct a cognitive appraisal coping model to explore the formation pathway of cancer recurrence fear
