dc.description.abstractBackground: Considering that in Portugal, in 2020, 60.000 people were diagnosed with cancer and 50% died of the disease, it is not surprising that the diagnosis and subsequent stages, including survival, are marked by recurrent concerns and fears that the disease progresses negatively or reoccurs, with all its biopsychosocial consequences. Although this Fear of Progression/Recurrence is realistic and is part of the normal response to the disease, valid instruments are necessary to assess and monitor its severity and the evolution. The present study aimed to translate and validate the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF) for the Portuguese population with cancer. Methods: The sample included 220 participants, aged 18 years or over and diagnosed with cancer for at least six months. Cancer patients completed the FoP-Q-SF, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core-30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C). Results: The FoP-Q-SF demonstrated high internal reliability (α=0.86). A confirmatory factorial analysis was conducted and supported a modified one-dimensional factorial structure, which allowed the covariance of errors between some of the items, to improve the fit of the model (CFI=0.96; TLI=.95; RMSEA=.08; 232 WRMR=0.8). The convergent validity was tested and, as expected, the strongest positive correlation was found between total FoP-Q-SF and anxiety scores. In addition, FoP-Q-SF was also positively and moderately associated with depressive symptoms and post-traumatic stress. Conclusion: The results indicated that the Portuguese version of the FoP-QSF is a reliable and valid measure for assessing Fear of Progression in cancer.
