The independents were variables shown in Table 1: education level (ref. primary and below), marital status (ref. married), has children (ref. yes), employment status (ref. unemployed), average monthly income (Chinese Yuan) (ref. < 3000), residence place (ref. urban), chronic disease (ref. yes), illness stage (ref. I), metastasis (ref. yes), surgery (ref. yes), chemotherapy (ref. yes), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (ref. yes), radiotherapy (ref. yes), endocrine therapy (ref. yes), targeted therapy (ref. yes), and continuous characteristics (age, resilience, perceived social support, confrontation, avoidance, resignation)
R²_adj Adjusted R², 95%CI 95% confidence interval, VIF Variance inflation factor (reference value: < 10)
